Data Maps

You are a scientist building a team that requires experts from different fields.
How do you identify them?

Researchers can use maps to quickly locate colleagues working and writing papers in their fields of interest. To work with maps such as these interactively, researchers can use publicly available freeware* and data like that available from the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) Information Bridge www.osti.gov/bridge.

At DOE Information Bridge you can find more than 150,000 full text scientific and technical reports. The DOE Information Bridge is a DOE Science Accelerator (www.scienceaccelerator.gov) resource. The Science Accelerator, developed by the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI), is a Web portal for key DOE databases. OSTI has been advancing scientific discovery through the dissemination of scientific and technical information since 1947.

As part of the OSTI 60th Anniversary celebration (www.osti.gov/60th/index), OSTI participated in the Places and Spaces Exhibit at the American Museum of Science and Energy. View the OSTI maps here and visit the exhibit between September 7, 2007–January 7, 2008.
