This deliverable is designed to evaluate the current technical state of the GGP infrastructure and possible amendments and developments that can help increase its performance as part of its infrastructural development. It outlines a technical evaluation that will be used to adapt the fieldwork and implementation guidelines and enable the initiation of a new round of GGP. This technical evaluation will also help inform planning elsewhere such as the requirements for financing and governance structures within the GGP, as well as the capacity of the GGP to increase its socio-economic and scientific impact.
