About KMap

The UArizona Knowledge Map (KMap) helps students, faculty members, researchers, and administrators explore the university’s knowledge landscape. KMap collects, connects, analyzes, and visualizes scholarly research data at the University of Arizona, managed by Research, Innovation, and Impact (RII). The data includes publications, grants, project proposals, patents, courses, research areas, goals, achievements, etc. The system collects those un/semi-structured data from the internal and external sources of the university without direct input from the researchers. A large Knowledge Graph (KG) is built from those data. The system then provides a modern web interface to interact and conduct searches on the knowledge graph.
