COKI Open Access Dataset

The COKI Open Access Dataset measures open access performance for 142 countries and 5117 institutions and is available in JSON Lines format. The data is visualised at the COKI Open Access Dashboard: https://open.coki.ac/.

The COKI Open Access Dataset is created with the COKI Academic Observatory data collection pipeline, which fetches data about research publications from multiple sources, synthesises the datasets and creates the open access calculations for each country and institution.

Each week a number of specialised research publication datasets are collected. The datasets that are used for the COKI Open Access Dataset release include Crossref Metadata, Microsoft Academic Graph, Unpaywall and the Research Organization Registry.

After fetching the datasets, they are synthesised to produce aggregate time series statistics for each country and institution in the dataset. The aggregate timeseries statistics include publication count, open access status and citation count. 

See https://open.coki.ac/data/ for the dataset schema. A new version of the dataset is deposited every week.
