Version 1.9.0
What's New
Capability Map
To address the desire for improved expert finding features in VIVO, we are pleased to introduce a capability map. This feature allows you to search for research areas, and see the relationship between them and the researchers.
Initially developed at the University of Melbourne, the code has been updated to remove dependencies on third party search engines. In this implementation, it is using the improved visualisation architecture that was present in 1.8.1. This means that the results are coming straight out of the triple store; however, the results may be subject to caching, in the same way as the Map of Science, Temporal Graph, etc.
Upgrading Installations
The capability map is only linked to from the menu bar. As this is configured through the triple store, and the initial definitions are in a file that only gets loaded the first time VIVO is run, upgrading applications will not have the link present.
To access the capability map in an upgraded VIVO, you need to browse to the following url path:
<vivo>/vis/capabilitymap
This can be added to an existing application's menu bar via the Site Admin pages.
Initial implementation provided by: Simon Porter, Matěj Korvas, Martin Kwok, and Melissa Makin; University of Melbourne.
Adapted for VIVO 1.9 by: Graham Triggs; DuraSpace.
