Mapping the impact of academic OSS with NumFOCUS

The open source research software environment has emerged as a highly complex, interrelated and interdependent ecosystem. This creates a number of challenges. How can we identify software used in research? How can we identify relationships between software and its supporters/progenitors? How can we measure the impact of software? How can we measure the health of software? How can we identify and support our communities? How can we encourage practices that simplify and strengthen the open source ecosystem both within our local institutions and the broader environment? How can we tell the story of open source software in a way that resonates with people who do not live in our world? In this talk, Jonathan Starr explores these challenges and the ongoing work to address them through NumFOCUS's Open Source Science Initiative. The exploration includes a demonstration of an end-to-end solution that begins to address many of these challenges with a few clicks. Speaker Bio Jonathan Starr stands at the intersection of open source, open science, and community. As the program manager of The Open Source Science Initiative out of NumFOCUS, he drives work on The Map of Open Source Science and facilitates long-duration “Innovation Sprints”, tackling shared ecosystem-level challenges. As co-lead of SciOS and the Institute of Open Science Practices, Jonathan designs and facilitates events and workshops connecting technologists with researchers to develop numerous deep tech infrastructures enabling open-by-design in research. Jonathan also consults on various projects designing novel publishing, identifiers, funding, community, and incentive mechanisms making the scientific process frictionless, collaborative, and community-driven.
