Most of these individual needs contain a detailed description of * the transnational dimension, * the added value that can be expected from respective improvements and * obstacles that currently impede a transnational spatial development. To be able to carry out a quantitative analysis of this data collection, we carried out two steps: * Step 1: We indexed each individual entry with an individual keyword * Step 2: We summarised related keywords to a keyword category. As an example this stepwise approach looks like: **Original text reference in the spatial planning document, e.g. regarding the transnational dimension:** Is a declination of the Community strategic guidelines for rural development (programming period 2007 to 2013) (2006/144/EC): “improving governance and mobilising the endogenous development potential of rural areas” **Individual key word applied:** Rural areas' engodeneous development potential **keyword category applied:** Rural development ====Approach, methodology and key findings of the document analysis==== For a more detailed description of the approach, the methodology and key findings of the document analysis, please refer to {{:wiki:action_4_2_working_paper_transnational_needs.pdf|the Working Paper on Action 4.2 Transnational Needs}}.
