Stakeholder ID cards are a generic entry point to store and access the information about the stakeholders identified within the use ecosystem. As such, it includes both some very descriptive formal information regarding the stakeholder and some more comprehensive information regarding the profile, activities and positioning of the stakeholder. 
8
The “stakeholder assessment radars” are built based on the information collected in the stakeholder ID Cards. They support an initial synthetic understanding of the stakeholders’ profile based on a rating on some key dimensions related to the adoption and use of data based services.
9
Together, Stakeholders ID Cards and Assessment radars should be used to support a better understanding of potential users and target the more promising ones.

STEP 1 - Fill in the descriptive information using publicly available sources
12
- Start by collecting all basic factual information about the stakeholder or organization from open and reliable sources.
- Relevant sources may include official publications, public reports, websites, organizational charts, press releases, or any other publicly accessible documents.
- Ensure that this descriptive information is accurate, up to date, and relevant to the context of your project.
13
14
STEP 2 - Gather and synthesize comprehensive information relevant to your project
15
- Complement the descriptive data with deeper insights that directly support your project needs.
- Relevant sources may include official publications, internal documentation, public reports, websites, organizational charts, press releases, market analyses, or project-specific materials, or any other publicly accessible documents.
- social networks, Interviews & expert inputs may also help to get access to finer-grained knowledge about the stakeholder
- Summarize this information to build a consolidated understanding of the stakeholder’s main activites, projects potential interest in DestinE and relevant contact point
- Highlight the key elements that will inform your assessment in your ID Card

Important note : keep in mind that ID Cards should be kept evolving along the course of the project, so feed them iteratively as you gather informations along the course of the project

STEP 3 - Evaluate the stakeholder across the defined assessment themes
18
- Using the table provided, assess each stakeholder on the specific orientation and competency themes.
- For each theme, assign a grade out of 5 and provide qualitative observations or comments explaining the score.
- The grading should be based on the qualitative data gathered in step 1 and 2, but should be refined over the course of the project as new knowledge regarding users is gathered
19
The assessment themes are:
20
➜ Orientations (ie. The stakeholders' interests which may encourage them to pay attention to opportunities related to DestinE)
21
• Orientation towards policy-making (Does the stakeholder play a role in policy development?)
22
• Orientation toward sustainability (Does the stakeholder aim to take action for sustainability?)
23
• Orientation towards design & innovation (Does the stakeholder seek to innovate and design new things?)
24
➜ Competencies (ie. The key types of competencies involved in the development, adoption and use of services based on DestinE)
25
• Scientific competencies (ie., understanding of physical processes and theoretical foundations that ensure accurate interpretation and meaningful use of data within specific domains)
26
• Technical competencies related to data and Earth Observation (ie., Hands-on skills required to design, develop, manage and/or use data-driven services)
27
• Business competencies (ie., the ability to envision commercial development and / or commercial use for a service based on data)
28
• Practical competencies (ie., competencies related to concrete activities in a specific field : managing nature in town, city planning, water management, etc.)
29
• Collaborative competencies (ie., communication and collaboration competencies that help to bridge diverse stakeholders, fostering alignment and facilitating collaborative innovation)
30
This structured evaluation allows you to compare stakeholders, identify strengths and gaps, and better understand how each one can contribute to — or impact — your project.
31
32
STEP 4 - Compare the evaluation of each stakeholder to identify the most promising users.
33
• Review the radar chart, which automatically fills in as the stakeholder evaluations are completed.
34
• To put the evaluation of the different stakeholders into perspective, simply copy and paste the ratings given to each stakeholder progressively into the columns of the table found in the (Stakeholder comparison) tab.
35
• By comparing the assessments of the different stakeholders, it is possible to share a concise analysis with team members and identify the stakeholders that appear to be the most promising.
