Source Data
Two categories of sources:
- The Journal Of Extension
- Land-grant institutions’ official websites (e.g., MSU Extension, UNL Extension, etc.)
Data Collection and Processing
The dataset was compiled from publicly available documents: (1) 212 scholarly full-text articles from the Journal Of Extension and (2) 1443 materials extracted from 40 land-grant institutions that provide Extension services throughout the USA. These materials include factsheets, e-books, and articles related to agricultural research, and they are in HTML, text, and PDF formats.
The PDFs were processed and converted into text using Amazon's Textract.
Furthermore, we removed non-UTF8 characters, bibliographic references, and URLs (when possible).
Who are the source data producers?
The original documents were authored by Extension staff (educators, faculty, specialists, etc.) from diverse land-grant institutions. The references to these authors can be found here (TTO-DO).
Personal and Sensitive Information
To the best of our ability, we tried removing any personal information (e.g., emails) during the automatic processing stage. However, considering that this dataset was programmatically compiled from other existing texts, there could be residues of personal information, (especially from bibliographical sections) that could have carried over into our dataset as well. If you are the original author of a document compiled inside AEC and found your personal details in the dataset, please refer to our list of references here TO_DO. If you have not been cited, please contact us to request removal.
