RESUMO
Big data launches a modern way of producing science and research around the world. Due to an explosion of data available in scientific databases, combined with recent advances in information technology, the researcher has at his disposal new methods and technologies that facilitate scientific development. Considering the challenges of producing science in a dynamic and complex scenario, the main objective of this article is to present a method aligned with tools recently developed to support scientific production, based on steps and technologies that will help researchers to materialize their objectives efficiently and effectively. Applying this method, the researcher can apply science mapping and bibliometric techniques with agility, taking advantage of an easy-to-use solution with cloud computing capabilities. From the application of the "Scientific Mapping Process", the researcher will be able to generate strategic information for a result-oriented scientific production, assertively going through the main steps of research and boosting scientific discovery in the most diverse fields of investigation. â¢The Scientific Mapping Process provides a method and a system to boost scientific development.â¢It automates Science Mapping and bibliometric analysis from scientific datasets.â¢It facilitates the researcher's work, increasing the assertiveness in scientific production.
