Clickstream Data Yields High-Resolution Maps of Scienc. Methods Data collection We aggregated a log dataset that contains approximately 1 billion (1×109) user interactions. These interactions were logged in the course of 2006 and 2007 by web portals operated by the following scientific publishers, aggregators, and institutions: Thomson Scientific (Web of Science), Elsevier (Scopus), JSTOR, Ingenta, University of Texas (9 campuses, 6 health institutions), and California State University (23 campuses).
Strict confidentiality agreements prevent the distribution of any comparable and identifiable statistics with regards to individual web portals. These distinct portals were selected for two reasons. From this aggregate log dataset, we selected a subset that includes user interactions that occurred between March 1st 2006 and February 1st 2007 because this timeframe was covered by the logs of all aforementioned portals. Journal domain classification JCR and Dewey Decimal classification codes were retrieved for each journal in our logs. Figure 1. If. Places and Spaces :: Co-PI Map of Current IDM Awardees.
