Research Portal Denmark

September 2022

• Beta-2 release (May 2022) of the portal database with Digital Science data, which in this beta version solely includes publication metadata

Imported Data

• Dimensions publication data with Danish country code from 2011 to date

Data Enhancements

• Danish affiliation names from the set of Dimensions publication records are mapped to Danish Affiliations in a standardized form (NORA names) and grouped in categories like Universities, Private Research etc. This is an ongoing effort
• UN SDG Classification is added based on Digital Science’s UN SDG classification from Dimensions as they are tagged on the individual Dimension record
• AU/NZ FOR Classification is added based on Digital Science’s FOR classification from Dimensions as they are tagged on the individual Dimensions record
• OECD Classification is added based on a NORA mapping from Digital Science’s FOR Classification as they are tagged on the individual Dimensions record
• The Danish classification scheme DK Main Research Area is added based on a NORA mapping from Digital Science’s FOR Classification as they are tagged on the individual Dimensions record
• Collaboration Countries are mapped into Collaboration Regions of analytical interest, like OECD, EU etc. Regions are in standardized form (NORA names)
• Interlinking across all four databases (Matching Records in) has been implemented based on DOI-matching
• Digital Science’s Open Access types are mapped to a standardized NORA OA terminology

• Keywords are based on Digital Science’s Concepts as they are added on the individual Dimension record

Help and Guides

• Currently we provide in-context help in the form of mouse-overs and pop-up windows

Analytics Functionality

• To be added later in 2022

Imported Data

• When harvesting/importing publication data we rely on the country code(s) Digital Science relates to the publication records – this means:
  • Records that have a Danish affiliation, but no Danish country code are consequently not included in the NORA database
  • Records that have a Danish country code, but do not have an explicit Danish affiliation are included in the NORA database, but are not mapped to any of the Danish Affiliations names in the standardized form, but rather to ‘Other Research’

Danish Affiliation Names

• Mapping of Danish affiliation names to NORA standard names is solely based on the normalization of these names in the context of the Digital Science’s GRID database. We are working on including Danish affiliations without a GRID
