Scientometric indicators of The Map of Russian Science information analytical system. Calculation methodology

Methods to calculate several scientometric indicators used in The Map of Russian Science information analytical system and appropriate context to interpret these indicators are discussed. The need to limit type of publications by cited objects is emphasized. The “impact factor” indicator for journals and “cumulative (aggregate) impact factor of journals” and “average weighted (average) impact factor of journals” where researcher’s (institution’s) articles are published, are analyzed. The methods to calculate these indicators in The Map of Russian Science are discussed, along with the procedure for Hirsch index and G-index. The article is prepared within the framework of the Government Order for the year 2016 for “Information and Analytical Support and development of The Map of Russian Science Information System”.
