Indicators ingestion

In this step, research products are enriched with Impact and Usage Statistics indicators. The former are provided by BIP! while the latter are computed by OpenAIRE's UsageCounts service.

📄️ Usage Statistics indicators

Usage Statistics indicators for research products, like publications, datasets,etc., are an important complement to other (traditional and alternative) bibliometric indicators to provide a comprehensive and recent view of the impact of such resources but also about their authors, institutions and the platforms themselves. They are taking into account different levels of information: the usage of data sources, the usage of individual items in the context of their resource type and the usage of individual web resources or files.
