Total-Impact allows users to view the impact of a wide range of research output. Rather than relying on traditional measures such as citations alone,Total-Impact aggregates impact data from many sources and displays it in a single report. The report is given a permaurl to facilitate dissemination of its contents. Reports can be updated as impact measures change.
