Why OpenAIRE Research Graph

Unlock the power of open science data
Open and transparent
It is available for download and re-use as CC-BY (due to some input sources whose license is CC-BY); parts of the graphs can be re-used as CC-0; provenance is tracked at the level of the records and, when these are the result of full-text mining, of the properties (provenance also includes an indicator of trust, in the range [0..1]).
Decentralized and interoperable
Metadata and links are collected from data sources, such as institutional/data/software repositories, publishers, registries, and re-distributed to such sources via brokering services.
Intelligent linking
Abstracts, full-texts of Open Access publications and links are processed by several algorithms that infer new links and enrich the graph.
