Background
In March 2020 Dimensions made available a COVID-19 dataset on BigQuery free for anyone to access. The dataset is updated on daily basis and it includes all published articles, preprints, datasets, grants and clinical trials that reference COVID-19. The intent was to help the research community to stay up to date in this fast-moving situation, and greatly reduce the time that would otherwise be required to collate this information from many disparate sources.
Technology
- Google Data Studio for the dashboard
- Dimensions COVID-19 dataset on Google BigQuery
