DUENAS, MARCO; ROJAS, DIANA  y  MORALES, MARÍA EUGENIA. METHODOLOGICAL PROPOSAL TO BUILD KNOWLEDGE MAPS. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2012, vol.20, n.1, pp.77-90. ISSN 0121-6805.

Recently, Chavalarias and Cointet (2008) proposed a methodology to build knowledge maps. Such study considers the body of information built from a group of fixed key words, which are determined exogenously, this article replicates this methodology, but the group of key words is built through recurrent and related searches. Thus, beginning with a reduced group of key words belonging to a scientific paradigm, a body of articles is built, which at the same time cite other key words used as input for a second search. This study used as platform articles related to satellite apps, the proposed methodology allows building knowledge maps or determining paradigmatic fields (Chalavarias and Cointet, 2008), that is, obtaining linked clusters, including related words under a specific criterion of proximity and interrelation, which seen from a global perspective allow identifying specific areas of knowledge.

Palabras clave : knowledge maps; satellite applications; scientific paradigm; technological paradigm; scientometrics.
