Abstract

CitationMap is an open-sourced Python-based tool designed to identify and visualize the geographical distribution of Google Scholar citations. By retrieving citation data and mapping them onto the world map, CitationMap offers researchers an intuitive way to understand the global impact of their work. We first present the motivation, features, and implementation details, highlighting its unique capabilities compared to existing tools. Next, we demonstrate its performance as it processes profiles of six researchers with citation counts ranging from 10^0 to 10^5. Finally, we discuss its limitations and propose directions for further improvement. The code is available at https://github.com/ChenLiu-1996/CitationMap.
