A survey of digital mine and mine safety management based on Citespace

This paper, taking the Chinese and English literature of mine safety and digital mine safety management from 1999 to 2019 as the research object, using Citespace visualization software as the research tool, systematically sorted out and analyzed the highly cited literature from the number of documents, research topics, major scholars and research institutions, keywords and keyword centrality. The results show that: papers on mine safety from the perspective of digital mines account for about 20 % of the research papers in the field of mine safety, and show an upward trend year by year, indicating that the related research of digital mines in the field of safety management has always been a hot spot in this field; Most cited Chinese documents are theoretical methods or management studies, while highly cited foreign documents are mostly engineering and technical studies, indicating that there are certain differences between Chinese and foreign academic journals. 61.9 % of the authors of foreign literature are from China, which shows that Chinese scholars have made a great contribution to the research in this field. It also shows that Chinese scholars have taken theoretical method research, management research, and engineering technology research into account at the same time. Current research at home and abroad has a high degree of concentration, strong research intensity, and strong forward-looking nature. It has basically realized the combination of emerging technologies and the safety management of digital mines, which provides the necessary theoretical support for the application and development of digital mines in mine safety management.
