This article describes the construction and deployment of the Covid Data Analytics Repository, a source for interdisciplinary studies about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. We collected different types of data from official (IBGE, DATASUS) and non-official (Brasil.IO) sources, online social networks (Instagram, Twitter), and from a search engine analysis tool (Google Trends). We used these data to perform investigations aimed to understand the impacts of COVID-19 in the country, from economics to social behavior. At the moment of publication of this article, our repository contains 1,508 documents, classified into two main types: (i) databases and tables downloaded from the aforementioned sources; and (ii) papers, reports, maps and graphs resulting from the analyses that we performed. As a means to allow reproducibility and foster follow-up studies, we released our repository for public use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
