Systems and method are provided for implementing selective crowd sourcing. In one embodiment, a processor-implemented method for obtaining data from vehicles includes calculating a greedy parameter value for each of a plurality of vehicles in a geographical area; selecting no more than a predetermined number of the plurality of vehicles having a greedy parameter value in a greedy parameter threshold range; instructing the selected vehicles to transmit data while in the geographical area; and receiving the data from the selected vehicles. In another embodiment, a vehicle including a crowd sourcing selection module is provided. The crowd sourcing selection module is configured to retrieve consensus information from a central repository; calculate greedy parameter information regarding the vehicle using the consensus information; and determine whether to transmit an event observation to the central repository based on the greedy parameter information.
