    Abstract: Spatial crowdsourcing systems and methods assign spatial tasks to be performed by human workers. The systems and methods can verify the validity of the results provided by workers. Every worker can have a reputation score stating the probability that the worker performs a task correctly. Every spatial task can have a confidence threshold determining the minimum quality of the accepted level of its result. To satisfy this threshold, a task may be assigned redundantly to multiple workers. A reputation score can be associated to every worker, which represents the probability that a worker performs a task correctly. A task may be assigned to a subset of workers whose aggregate reputation score satisfies the confidence of the task.
