Geovisualizer of Latin American geographic education research (2000-2022): a query system of open and free scientific articles
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
The increase in scientific articles worldwide, particularly in the field of geographic education, has been consistent in the 21st century. This increment in Latin America is characterized by following total open access model labelled as diamond. However, open access alone does not guarantee accessibility, as finding scientific articles in geographic education in the region is complex due to the dispersion of journals on the Internet and the lack of a unified and effective system for accessing scientific articles in the field. Therefore, this article presents the results of the creation of a geovisualizer and research consultation system for Latin American geographic education in the 21st century. The study describes the process for building the geovisualizer, as well as the procedure by which spatial-temporal queries can be made by cross-referencing information from 2335 articles from the year 2000 to 2022, using publication year, research topics, and keywords as reference, along with direct links to the journal for consultation. It is expected that this geovisualizer will become a tool for disseminating academic knowledge about geographic education and support research processes in the region.
