The GESIS Knowledge Graph (GESIS KG) represents metadata of scientific resources available in the GESIS Search and its semantic relationships in an integrated and consistent form. By using established standards, GESIS KG ensures interoperability and reusability of GESIS metadata and links on the Web. Understanding relations and dependencies between scientific resources is crucial to capture provenance, ensure reproducibility of research and facilitate informed search across resources. Hence, the GESIS KG contains links between different scientific resources, e.g., links between research data, publications, and instruments, and links to entities like authors and social science concepts. The GESIS KG is integrated into the GESIS Search and makes such links between scientific resources findable.
This new version includes methods and tutorials from GESIS Methods Hub as well as links between equivalent variables across survey waves.
