OpenAIRE Research Graph aggregates a collection of research data properties for funders, organizations, researchers, research communities and publishers to interlink information by using a semantic graph database approach.

You give us some simple (meta)data related to your organization function: e.g., funding database, repositories, related projects, registry of people… All under confidential agreements.

We ingest your data in our system and start the work: we clean and normalize your data, we identify and extract related information, we infer links. We refine until we are happy of the results and present to you.

After the first iteration you examine our results to ensure you are satisfied with what you see. As numbers are important, we advise you to take your time and tell us of any deviations. We correct, you check, you approve.

Using our admin panel you set up your portal. You decide what metrics are of interest to you (full documentation available). You decide what you want to publish, what to keep private, what to share with colleagues.

Now your views are updated every two weeks, as new content and new providers join OpenAIRE. You are notified about new metrics and indicators as we keep on enriching the OpenAIRE Research Graph and you may add them as they come along.
