Project Sidewalk: Help us find and label sidewalk problems in Seattle, WA. - $1.47 +0.47 bonus Confirmed!

Fair

Unrated

Approved

$15.55 / hour

00:07:29 / completion time

Pros

University of Washington

Look at street sidewalks and curbs and label them along with any problems they might have (narrow sidewalk, trash, grass growing through sidewalk, etc.)

Fulfilling work if you care about that, as you're presumably helping improve the quality of sidewalks and curbs

Bonus is based on how much work you complete, and the pay for the tutorial + first mission is good enough. You can continue to work on more missions outside of MTurk using their own website, and they'll compensate you with bonuses for the missions you complete.

Cons

The actual task after the tutorial is very underpaid. They have a payrate of $5 per mile, but it took me about 5 minutes to complete a 500ft section of road, so they're paying about $6/hr for the task, which is pretty bad.

The interface for the task uses Google Maps and the Street View feature, so if you have a bad internet connection then you're gonna wait a long time for the images to load.

I would only recommend doing the tutorial and first mission, unless if you really love working for less than minimum wage.
