Google Haritalar Üzerine Yapılan Çalışmaların Bibliyometrik Analizi

Öz

Google Haritalar dünya çapında en yaygın kullanılan haritalama hizmetidir ve sunduğu, konumlar, yol tarifleri ve değerlendirmelerden oluşan kapsamlı veritabanı ile bireyler ve işletmeler için vazgeçilmez bir platform haline gelmiştir. Bu durum işletmelerin keşfedilmesi için Google Haritalar’ı önemli bir platform haline getirmektedir. Google Haritalar’da iyi değerlendirmelere sahip işletmelerin potansiyel müşteriyi çekme olasılıklarının daha yüksektir. Bu çalışma “çevrimiçi değerlendirmeler” ve “Google haritalar” anahtar kelimelerini kullanarak Web of Science veri tabanında yer alan yayınların bibliyometrik analizini yapmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada VOSviewer uygulaması kullanılmış ve anahtar kelimeler, özet, atıflar, kaynakça, yayın yerleri, yazarlar, yıllara göre yayın sayıları hakkında ilişki grafikleri oluşturularak çalışmalar analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonuçları, yayınların çoğunluğunun makalelerden oluştuğu, 2007-2018 yılları arasındaki çalışmaların alanda teorik temeli oluşturduğu, en fazla yayına ve atfa sahip ülkenin ABD olduğu, yazarlar arasında orta düzeyde işbirliği olduğu, yayınların fen bilimleri, sağlık bilimleri ve sosyal bilimler alanından birçok farklı bilim dalı ile ilişkili ve multidisipliner özelliklere sahip olduğu yönündedir.

Bibliometric Analysis of Studies on Google Maps

Öz

Google Maps is the most widely used mapping service worldwide and has become an indispensable platform for individuals and businesses with its extensive database of locations, directions, and reviews. This makes Google Maps an essential platform for discovering businesses. Businesses with good reviews on Google Maps are more likely to attract potential customers. This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications in the Web of Science database using the keywords “online reviews” and “Google Maps.” We used the VOSviewer application to analyze the studies, creating relationship graphs about keywords, abstracts, citations, bibliographies, publication locations, authors, and the number of publications by year. The results of the study show that the majority of the publications consist of articles; the studies between 2007 and 2018 constitute the theoretical basis in the area; the country with the highest number of publications and citations is the USA; there is a moderate level of collaboration between authors; the publications are related to many different disciplines in the areas of science, health sciences, and social sciences; and they have multidisciplinary features.
