Abstract. This paper offers an exploratory approach to crowdsourcing methods, tools, and roles based on different levels of involvement of users, skills re-quired, and types of data being processed (from raw data to highly structured dada). The paper also aims at refining different crowdsourcing categories and opening up a theoretical discussion on the advantages and limits of using crowdsourcing methods and technologies in disaster management activities.
