Scope

Purpose

   * Purpose defines the specific information need of the decision-making and the research question that is asked.

Boundaries

   * Boundaries define which parts of the reality are taken into the assessment and which are excluded within 
     spatial, temporal and other dimensions.

Scenarios

   * Scenarios define particular conditions that are of interest irrespective whether they describe 
     reality or not (e.g. what-if scenarios).

Intended users

   * Intended users are those for whom the assessment is made.

Participants

   * Participants are those who may participate in the making of the assessment. 
     The minimum group of people for a successful assessment is always described. 
     If some groups must be excluded, this must be explicitly motivated.

Indicators

Other variables

   * Other variables: any variables that link to the causal network and are within the boundaries of the assessment.

Analyses

   * Analyses: statistical and other analyses that contain two or more variables, e.g. optimizing.

Indices

   * Indices: lists of particular locations along spatial, temporal, or other dimensions. 

Result

   * Results of indicators and assessment-specific analyses. 

Conclusions

   * Conclusions are based on the results, given the scope.
