Sammendrag	Field-mapping scientometric analysis uses quantitative bibliometric techniques — co-citation, bibliographic coupling, co-authorship, and keyword co-occurrence — to delineate the intellectual structure and boundaries of a scientific field. By transforming large publication datasets into similarity networks and clustering them into research fronts and knowledge bases, it produces visual maps that reveal how subfields relate, where boundaries lie, and how the field evolves over time.	Co-word analysis is a scientometric technique that quantifies how often pairs of keywords, subject terms, or title words appear together across a corpus of publications. By treating simultaneous occurrence as a proxy for conceptual relatedness, it constructs networks and clusters that reveal the intellectual structure, dominant themes, and emerging sub-fields of a research domain.
