  2. What do you like the most? • Web of science • Google Scholar • Scopus • Microsoft academic search

  3. Tips of the week Alternativeownedby Elsevier Sciverse http://www.hub.sciverse.com/action/home

  4. Publications on SDI

  5. Input differences • Spatial data infrastructure • “Spatial data infrastructure” • SDI • “Spatial data infrastructure” and “SDI” • Geospatial data Differences on Google search “spatial data infrastructure” 10.200 spatial data infrastructure  577.000 “spatial data infrastructures” 5.390 spatial data infrastructures  128.000

  6. Volume of publications (2013) • Web of Science: 17,51,86,167, 171,187,228,241,961,911,2331, 253 • Scopus: 164,464,472, 571, 1143, 1844,1846, 2556, 9673, 697 • Google Scholar: 685,2450,4950, 6000, 7280,7290, 8810, 9230,2740,35400, 10200

  7. Publication differences (2013, 2011,2010,2009,2008) • Web of Sc. 253 167 78 58 46 • Scopus 697 1147 374 315 184 • Google Sc. 10200 7290 5980 5100 4030 • Microsoft AS 968

  8. Scopus and WoS JISC-ADAT comparison, Scopus vs. Web of Science journal coverage

  9. Reflection • spatial data infrastructure OR “spatial data Infrastructure” • SDI is the leading term (e.g geospatial, geo-information, etc)

  10. Impact of publications (Web of Science) • Croner, 2003. Public Health, GIS and the Internet cites 38 (2013) 30 (2011) 23 (2010)

  11. Impact of publications (Scopus) • Lutz, M. F. Klien, 2006. Ontology-based retrieval of geographic information cites 77 (2013) 59 (2011) 41 (2010)

  12. Impact of publications (Google Scolar, 2010) • Masser, I, 2005. GIS worlds, creating spatial data infrastructures (book) cited 130 (2011) 105 (2010) • Nebert, D. D. (ed.) (2004) Developing Spatial Data Infrastructures: The SDI Cookbook, GSDI Association [ Cited 279 (2013)

  13. Reflection • Highest impact is not necessarily the most relevant one (GIS and Health paper). • Results of Google Scolar are not so consistent.

  14. Personal Preference (Motivation) • Number of citations • Concrete topics • Relation to own field • Nice name • Authors • Overview publication • ….. • ….

  15. How new is the topic (2013) Web of science: 1991,1992,2002,2004 Scopus: 1979,1986,1988,1989,1991,1993,1997 Google Scolar ?,1990,1991,1992,1997 Google ?,1980,1989,1993,1994

  16. How new is the topic (2013) • Web of science 1991,1987,2002,2010 • Scopus 1983,1989,1991,2002,2010 • Google Scolar ??,1960,1987,1988,1989 • Google ??,1987,1988,1991

  17. Overview of differences

  18. Reflection • The SDI topic is about 20 years old • The last 10 is has become a topic of scientific interest • Some changes over the years, e.g. • Before a research it is important to think about how to search for information!

  19. What are the active countries? (2010)

  20. Active countries 2011

  21. Active countries 2013
