OpenVIVO Project. OpenVIVO, a hosted, open VIVO that everyone can join, is nearing completion and will have its debut at the Force2016 conference. OpenVIVO is a proving ground for new ideas – in particular, 1) an ecosystem in which attribution, contribution and recognition of the roles people play in scholarly work can be recorded and used to identify expertise, build teams, and promote the various kinds of contributions people make to scholarly work. Working with the Force11 Attribution Working Group, and OpenRIF, the OpenVIVO Task Force has implemented new capabilities for VIVO to capture the contributions of individuals on scholarly works. 2) Demonstrate a connected, identified, real-time ecosystem. OpenVIVO identifies people by ORCiD (see below), works by DOI, journals by ISSN, and organizations by GRID ID. OpenVIVO can fetch metadata for works identified by DOI or PubMed ID and add them to profiles interactively. With people, works, journals and organizations fully identified, profiles can be built can be built quickly and accurately. 3) Demonstrate an open ecosystem in which the data assembled about scholars and scholarship is freely shared. OpenVIVO data will be made available every day. Anyone can reuse the data for analysis, expert finding, team building, trend and social network analysis and much more.
