CiteSpace is a tool designed to analyze and visualize structural and temporal trends and patterns in a scientific field. This software focuses on the visual exploration of research fields, providing a structural and temporal perspective of knowledge development in a given area. It uses citation data from sources such as Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions and Lens, as well as sources without citation information, such as PubMed, CNKI, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses.

Analyze the development of the subject you are studying
One of the main abilities of CiteSpace is that it can reveal how a field of research has evolved over time. It identifies intellectual turning points, hotspots and emerging trends and shows how areas of focus have changed over time. This way, you can visually see the changes over the months and years, giving you a more global view of the trends in your subject of study over time.
Work on your projects globally
The tool supports structural and temporal analysis of various networks derived from scientific publications, including collaborative networks, co-citation of authors and papers and hybrid networks of terms, institutions and countries. Additionally, it allows you to generate geographic map overlays viewable in Google Earth, based on authors' locations.
CiteSpace is, in short, an analysis and visualization tool that generates interactive visualizations of patterns and trends in research fields. Download CiteSpace for free and explore the structural and temporal landscape of your subject area to identify hotspots and emerging trends.
