The world's largest AI-based search engine for research. We're open & nonprofit. Join us - together we can change the way we discover research!
🌊The @oscarsproject.bsky.social -funded project #AQUANAVI is creating an interactive atlas of #aquatic #mesocosm -based experimental research using Open Knowledge Maps' AI-driven visual discovery tools to facilitate efficient use of Research Infrastructures.
🔓Grant Proposal: doi.org/10.3897/rio....
We were honoured to present Open Knowledge Maps at this high-level event. Our poster sparked many interesting conversations, and we’re excited to help advance a more open and connected European Research Area.

Open Knowledge Maps founder and chairman Peter Kraker stands smiling beside an Open Knowledge Maps poster at the ERA Symposium 2025. The poster displays the OKMaps mission, visual discovery workflow, and illustrations of people interacting with knowledge maps.
A conference stage with empty chairs in front of a large presentation screen showing the title “Austrian ERA Symposium 2025: Towards Europe’s Fifth Freedom.” The slide features an illustration of people walking toward a lighthouse. A banner of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Women, Science and Research stands on the right.
European Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva and a moderator sit on stage in black armchairs during a panel discussion. Ekaterina Zaharieva holds a microphone while speaking; the moderator listens with a tablet in her hands. Behind them is a large screen displaying event graphics and a QR code, with a ministry banner on the right.
❓Do you know what Europe’s fifth freedom is?
❗The free movement of research, innovation & knowledge.
This proposed freedom was at the heart of the ERA Symposium 2025, which featured European Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva and Austrian Ministers Eva-Maria Holzleitner and Peter Hanke.

Our PubMed integration now uses Crossref citations for more accurate research overviews.
Citations determine the scale of both research areas and documents on our PubMed maps.

Circular badge with the text ‘We Support’ at the top and ‘CoARA Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment’ at the bottom. In the centre is the CoARA logo: a magnifying glass icon with radiating lines, in shades of blue.
🤝 Responsible research assessment is key to advancing open science.
That’s why we’ve joined CoARA - to help foster assessment practices that support a more inclusive and equitable research system 🌍
We're excited to be part of this movement for change! ✨

A flag for the Open Science Festival 2025 stands outside the entrance to the Aula at the University of Vienna campus. The flag features the festival’s keywords “Meet”, “Share”, “Inspire”, and “Care”.
The Open Science Festival 2025 was truly inspiring! ✨
The programme sparked discussions on the past, present & future of #OpenScience. Great to reconnect with colleagues & friends, and big congrats to Team Baby Mac 🏆 on winning the #OKMaps Scavenger Hunt!

A statement from Prof. Dr. Christian Obinger, Vice Rector for Research and Innovation of BOKU University: "We joined Open Knowledge Maps as a supporting member because BOKU is developing its own innovative research information system and Open Knowledge Maps helps us to better highlight and communicate research results."
As summer draws to a close, we celebrate new connections 🌻
We warmly welcome BOKU University as a supporting member! They are the 10th Austrian institution to pledge their support to Open Knowledge Maps.

🔓 Open research info is key to our work at Open Knowledge Maps. It powers our AI-driven discovery services and allows us to provide an open, community-owned infrastructure.
That’s why we support the Barcelona Declaration - excited to join this community of like-minded organisations! 🤝
#OpenScience
Thank you for an outstanding partnership 🙌 Looking forward to the next stage of our journey together!

Illustration of the VisConnect service by Open Knowledge Maps. On the left, a visual map shows a researcher’s work organised by topic, with a robot icon symbolising AI assistance. On the right, key features are highlighted: a topical overview of key themes, scaling by impact metrics like citations and social media mentions, a structured researcher biography with career highlights, and a configurable overview of traditional and alternative metrics. The image illustrates how VisConnect combines visualisation and analytics for research assessment.
🚀 Introducing VisConnect - our new AI-powered service for responsible research assessment.
Developed with @ituaustria.bsky.social, VisConnect delivers rich, visual researcher profiles. Check out the announcement & a live example map: openknowledgemaps.org/news/2025/07...
