DataCite DOI prevalence in the published literature by country
In a previous post, I dug a little deeper into the findings of the State of Open Data to try and understand whether there we're any regional trends in data sharing and re-use using the Make Data Count Data Citation Corpus.

The 'Make Data Count Data Citation Corpus' looks for both DataCite DOIs and Accession numbers in the published literature. As there are variances in the 'types' of datasets that use DataCite DOIs or Accession numbers, I thought it would be a good idea to try and simplify this and normalise the data further. Dimensions.ai and their Google big query datasets can look at just the number of links to DataCite DOIs from anywhere in the full text of the published literature. As bibliometric data can sometimes take a while to filter through, I decided to look at 2022 for this analysis.
To do this I looked at Country based data linkage count.xlsx in the Data behind State of Open Data 2024 Special Report: Bridging policy and practice in data sharing

By creating Chloropleth maps, we can see where the percentage of papers with links to DataCite DOIs is highest.
