Abstract

On the Ground

• Spatial data is valuable to researchers for locating studies that occur in a particular area of interest, or one with similar attributes.

• Without a standard in publishing protocol, spatial data largely goes unreported, or is difficult to find without searching the publication.

• Assigning location data and displaying points on a public web map makes locating publications based on spatial location possible.
