Map of Science: A UI for Open-Source Science
summary
Map of Science builds an interactive, queryable index linking people, labs, papers, datasets and OSS used in domains; a live Kumu prototype already visualizes 17 tools and their contributors by scraping GitHub/GitLab contributor links and matching authors to papers, surfacing individuals who work across projects. Funders and partners (IBM, NumFOCUS, CZI, Sloan, UC Santa Cruz) back a roadmap that includes a 50‑researcher workshop to seed curation, plus automated URL extraction and dependency analysis to scale the map.
