VIVO is an open source, semantic web software system for scholarly networking discovery. VIVO is implemented by academic organizations to develop data regarding the work of their scholars. VIVO uses an open ontology, the VIVO Integrated Semantic Framework (VIVO-ISF) to represent scholarly work. VIVO can be used for finding experts for team science, grant proposal development, mentoring, and formation of committees for trainees. VIVO data, representable as Resource Description Framework "triples," can be used for Social Network Analysis and assessing research Impact.
