Making environmental research articles discoverable with OGC catalogue service
I am very happy to announce that our new article "Enhancing Location-related Hydrogeological Knowledge" has been published in the ISPRS International Jounral of Geo-information.

In a joint study by the University of Tartu (Estonia), the Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences (New Zealand) and the University of Salzburg (Austria) more than 5,800 scientific articles from three environmental research journals were digitised and analysed. In addition, a geographical search method was developed to identify the location of a studied area.
We use Georeferencing of scientific journal articles and text-mining in order to provide spatial search capabilities for environmental research. Journal articles are made discoverable through spatial queries. We propose that journal publishers should provide these capabilities on their platforms. This would allow everyone to search for journal articles for their desired regions of interest and it would really well complement existing search functionalities with keywords etc.
The press release from Tartu University explains really nicely how our results enable geographic search for scientific papers through text mining and geocoding; and how to better find environmental research articles via location.
