Map of resources: objectives

To define criteria for:

classifying resources – according to their contents and format –that are candidate for inclusion in the Thematic Network Portal

linking them in an effective, reliable and sustainable manner

deciding on their inclusion or exclusion

identifying possible quality indicators that could be helpful to the Portal users.
