This study presents indicators of open access (OA) at the institutional level for universities...

Reproducible research and GIScience: An evaluation using AGILE conference papers

The demand for reproducible research is on the rise in disciplines concerned with data analysis and computational methods. Therefore, we reviewed current recommendations for reproducible research and translated them into criteria for assessing the reproducibility of articles in the field of geographic information science (GIScience). Using...
