refsplitr: an R package for processing Web of Science Records and mapping georeferenced coauthorship networks

refsplitr (v1.0) is an R package to read, organize, geocode, analyze, and visualize Clarivate Web of Knowledge/Web of Science, format reference data files for scientometric, social network, and Science of Science analyses. The development of the original package (originally called refnet) was by Forrest Stevens and Emilio M. Bruna and was on r-forge (https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/refnet/); in December 2017 Bruna moved it to Github to facilitate updating the package and hired Porzana Solutions to finalize the package and prepare it for submission to CRAN. Please make all future changes via this Github repo! Do not make a repo mirror of the R-forge version.

Support for the development of refsplitr was provided by grants from the University of Florida Center for Latin American Studies and the University of Florida Informatics Institute.

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("embruna/refsplitr")

Workflow

dat1 <- references_read(data = system.file("extdata", "example_data.txt", package = "refsplitr"), dir = FALSE)
dat2 <- authors_clean(references = dat1)
dat3 <- authors_refine(dat2$review, dat2$prelim)
dat4 <- authors_georef(dat3)

plot_addresses_points(dat4$addresses)
