The Material databases that have been researched have been given an assessment score by our Technology and Operations Associate, Archie Maxwell.
Each Material database is assessed on 4 qualities; Relevance, Accessibility, Breadth/Depth, Specialisation.
Each one is given a score out of 25%, and initially deducted by 5% intervals. (So will either be ranked 25%, 20%, 15%, etc.). Once the initial assessment was completed, further assessment was carried out to separate databases with similar scores. The four parts were then added together to give an overall score.
