COVID-2019 has been recognized as a global threat, and several studies are being conducted in
order to contribute to the fight and prevention of this pandemic. This work presents a scholarly
production dataset focused on COVID-19, providing an overview of scientific research
activities, making it possible to identify countries, scientists and research groups most active in
this task force to combat the coronavirus disease. The dataset is composed of a number of
records of articles’ metadata collected from Scopus, PubMed, arXiv and bioRxiv databases from
January 2019 to July 2020. Those data were extracted by using the techniques of Python Web
Scraping and preprocessed with Pandas Data Wrangling. In addition, the pipeline to preprocess
and generate the dataset are versioned with the Data Version Control tool (DVC) and are thus
easily reproducible and auditable | en_US |
