Scientific paper

A new suite of citizen science software, "Community Science Builder" (CSB) has been created to facilitate exploration and annotation of space images. First launched as the backbone of "Ice Hunters," this software is designed to facilitate planetary science that requires images to be annotated by users. Initial features include: marking objects with a set of predefined markers and an administration dashboard for expert review of incoming annotations. Beginning with the release of "Planet Investigators" and "Mercury Zoo" in late 2011, CSB will also allow moving objects to be matched between frames, linear features to be traced, and interesting features to be annotated with flags and comments. In this paper we discuss upcoming projects, and the software's features and flexibility for generating science.
