+About VIVO Map of Science Visualization
+Reference Basemap
+The VIVO Map of Science visualization uses the UCSD map of science and classification
+system that was computed using paper-level data from about 25,000 journals from Elsevier's
+Scopus and and Thomson Reuters' Web of Science (WoS) for the years 2001-2010. The UCSD map
+of science assigns the 25,000 journals to 554 subdisciplines that are further aggregated
+into 13 main disciplines of science. In the map, each discipline has a distinct color
+(green for 'Biology', brown for 'Earth Sciences') and a label. (Sub)disciplines that are
+similar to one another closer to one another on the map. (Sub)disciplines that are
+especially similar are connected by grey lines.
+
+Data Overlay
+Publication activity of a university, organization, or person can be overlaid on the
+map to generate expertise profiles. The process is as follows: (1) The set of unique
+journals is identified, (2) the number of times each journal served as a publication venue
+is calculated, and (3) the area size of the 13 disciplines and 554 subdisciplines is
+calculated based on these journal publication venue counts. Note that some journals are
+associated with exactly one (sub)discipline while others, e.g., interdisciplinary ones like
+Science or Nature, are fractionally associated with multiple
+(sub)disciplines. Subdisciplines inherit the colors of their parent disciplines.
+(Sub)disciplines without any associated publications are given in gray.
+
+
+
+
+Interactivity
+The map can be explored at two levels-by 13 disciplines or 554 subdisciplines. Clicking
+into a node in the map brings up the number of fractionally associated journal publications
+and the percentage of publications mapped to this (sub)discipline. Hover over a discipline
+in the table on the left to see what circles it corresponds to on the map.
