  2. ViBRANT and eMonocot

  3. ViBRANT and eMonocot • Projects that focus on data collection, curation and reuse

  4. ViBRANT and eMonocot • Projects that focus on data collection, curation and reuse • Would like metrics to know how well we are doing

  5. ViBRANT and eMonocot

  6. ViBRANT and eMonocot Projects based around communities

  7. ViBRANT and eMonocot Projects based around communities Provide tools for communities

  8. ViBRANT and eMonocot Projects based around communities Provide tools for communities • Quantify user contribution to multi-user projects

  9. ViBRANT and eMonocot Projects based around communities Provide tools for communities • Quantify user contribution to multi-user projects • Quantify how content generated by the community is used/reused

  10. Citizen Science

  14. Citizen Science • COMBER • anymals+plants • Citizen Science profile Metrics allow for more competitive activities and for users to quantify their involvement

  15. Who needs impact metrics?

  16. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data

  17. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors

  18. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data

  19. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data Am I useful?

  20. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data Am I useful? Do we have our priorities right?

  21. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data Am I useful? Do we have our priorities right?

  22. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data Am I useful? Do we have our priorities right? Hidden gem?

  23. Who needs impact metrics? • The authors of data • People who employ data authors • People who reuse the data Am I useful? Do we have our priorities right? Hidden gem? Avoid like the plague?

  24. Our premise

  25. We want people to share data…

  26. …people want to please the “powers that be” …

  27. … the powers that be like statistics.

  28. So we made some

  29. But the people weren’t happy.

  30. But the people weren’t happy. Of all the things I do you only care about papers?

  31. But the people weren’t happy. The only way you value my papers is by citation in other papers? Of all the things I do you only care about papers?

  32. But the people weren’t happy. The only way you value my papers is by citation in other papers? Of all the things I do you only care about papers? The impact of my career is measured by one number?

  33. So some peoplemade their own

  34. But there are still problems

  35. But there are still problems This STILL only deals with my publications!

  36. But there are still problems This STILL only deals with my publications! How do I get credit for data?

  37. But there are still problems This STILL only deals with my publications! How do I get credit for data? I wrote some useful biodiversity software – what about that?

  38. Are alt metrics useful?

  39. Are alt metrics useful?

  40. Are alt metrics useful? These are fairly scholarly

  41. Are alt metrics useful? These measure broader public impact These are fairly scholarly

  42. Are alt metrics useful? These measure broader public impact • A good start These are fairly scholarly

  43. Are alt metrics useful? These measure broader public impact • A good start • Much broader than just scholarly citations These are fairly scholarly

  44. Are alt metrics useful? These measure broader public impact • A good start • Much broader than just scholarly citations • Actually ignores traditional citations These are fairly scholarly

  45. Are alt metrics useful? These measure broader public impact • A good start • Much broader than just scholarly citations • Actually ignores traditional citations • Still only applied to papers These are fairly scholarly

  46. What are we doing?

  47. What are we doing?
