Measurement is essential for assessment of performance. Without measurements using a repeatable tool there is no ability to monitor change. The application of the triple helix to measuring university-industry-government collaboration allows assessment of performance in the research sector. Furthermore, with the integration of research partner (or individual organisation) locations, any relationship with the local economy can be identified. New South Wales exhibits different behaviours for different research sectors, demonstrated by differences between all research fields and seven agriculture-related areas. Whilst all fields of research exhibited decreasing collaborations, agriculture-related countered this with increasing collaboration. These measurements allow targeted policies to enhance collaboration and improve research activities by increasing awareness of the nature and location of collaboration. There are two distinct datasets required; Web of Science and Australian Bureau of Statistics Census data. The code relies on CSV or Excel data files downloaded from the Web of Science. This subsequent dataset is used to perform the triple helix index analysis and calculation. The code relies on CSV or Excel data files downloaded from the Australian Bureau of Statistics to calculate the specialisation and diversification calculations.
