7. Katy Börner, Mapping Knowledge Domains & Designing an InfoVis Cyberinfrastructure. EnVISION 2005. The problem is not how one person can access knowledge but how we can collectively access and manage humanity’s knowledge.

8. Katy Börner, Mapping Knowledge Domains & Designing an InfoVis Cyberinfrastructure. EnVISION 2005. Mapping Knowledge Domains Knowledge domain visualizations help answer questions such as:  What are the major research areas, experts, institutions, regions, nations, grants, publications, journals in xx research?  Which areas are most insular?  What are the main connections for each area?  What is the relative speed of areas?  Which areas are the most dynamic/static?  What new research areas are evolving?  Impact of xx research on other fields?  How does funding influence the number and quality of publications? Answers are needed by funding agencies, companies, and researchers.

36. Katy Börner, Mapping Knowledge Domains & Designing an InfoVis Cyberinfrastructure. EnVISION 2005. Opportunities and challenges for studying the structure and evolution of science Opportunities:  Today, many scientific publications are available in digital form (some full text journal data sets go as far back as 120 years).  We do have algorithms and computing resources to analyze and map science on a large scale.  We need to utilize what we collectively know to sustain humanity. Challenges:  Data access is difficult.  Preservation is a big problem.  Data integration, i.e., merging data from different databases, is a “hot” research topic as are scalable data analysis and visualization algorithms.  Large datasets require powerful computing infrastructures.  Data analysis and mapping to generate readable maps is unresolved.  People need to learn how to use ‘data macroscopes’.
