bibliographic analysis

ResearchGate and other metrics

Here [1] is an interesting blog post from the London School of Economics and Politics on the reverse engineering the ResearchGate score. It argues that there are several problems with it, and places the findings in the wider context of research metrics (including some links to other interesting reports).

GIScience publishing trends put Enschede on the global map...

This paper (http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13658816.2015.1130831) has a couple of interesting facts for everyone working in GIScience / Geoinformatics, and for us in particular. No matter how you stand on scientometric / bibliographic analysis, and whether you hate impact factors or not, it's good to know when you do well in them.
