Long before citations start to accrue, research outputs may appear in curricula, influence municipal or legislative decisions, lead to changes in technology or practice, or affect public opinion. Altmetric data provides evidence of these research impacts, and can support individuals and institutions in a number of key areas, such as: helping to inform decisions around where to publish and with whom to collaborate; assisting in research evaluation; bolstering communications and outreach efforts; and uncovering timely conversations to help predict the direction of research itself.
