Interface interativa para visualização de indicadores de produção científica a partir de dados bibliométricos processados da Plataforma Lattes

Abstract

Lattes Platform metadata has been used frequently in scientific researches and technical reports from funding agencies, as also in higher education institutions and by private companies, aiming elaboration of Science and Technology indicators. In turn, the synclattes automated tool has been relevant for extracting data from the researchers' Lattes curriculum. In this context, the goal of this project was the development of an interactive interface for the visualization of scientific production indicators by use of the synclattes. It is a research of applied and exploratory nature, having as case unit the Federal University of São Carlos – UFSCar. Based on the concepts of information visualization area, a system was developed for the visual representation of data bibliometric, containing several graphs such as bars, stacked bars, tag cloud, graph and matrix of collaboration. Therefore, through a relevant data source such as the Lattes Platform, it was possible to elaborate a study about UFSCar's scientific production, considering the 50 researchers who more produce articles in events and in journals. Furthermore, this scientific work showed the viability of implementing an interactive interface for the visualization of Brazilian’s Institutes of Science and Technology bibliometric indicators, from data extracted by the synclattes.
