Resumen

SIERRA FLORES, María Magdalena et al. SIGI, an integrated scientometric and curricular information system for teaching-research institutions. Investig. bibl [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.89, eib0895843106.  Epub 22-Mar-2022. ISSN 2448-8321.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.24488321xe.2021.89.58431.

We hereby present SIGI, an integral automated, web-based system for Research Data Management and generation of metric indicators. SIGI is an information platform and database system created to manage all data related to the academic activity of a teaching-research institution, and to generate annual reports and metric indicators at the individual and institutional levels. It integrates data related to traditional academic bibliographic products with other aspects of the academic activity (e.g., those related to teaching or outreach). From this rich database, SIGI automatically generates metric indicators that are used in the creation of individual researcher profiles and in institutional evaluations and reports. We also show two examples of scientometrics analyses that can be carried out using the system: the internal collaboration network and the international collaboration map of a particular research institute. We conclude by discussing the example institute´s overall experience with the system and how it could be adopted by other institutions, both nationally and internationally.
