Abstract: This paper presents the very first steps of a methodology aimed at supporting the generation and update of technology roadmaps developed in close cooperation between Politecnico di Torino and the European Space Agency, here focusing on the map elements derivation and characterization in order to simplify the activities that will follow. Roadmapping activities are becoming crucial in several domains dealing with complex systems as well as an urgent demand of a rational process starting from the identification of Stakeholders and relative needs and leading the growth of technology readiness levels has been noticed. This research study seems to be suitable for application in the advanced transportation domain, especially in the aeronautical and aerospace sectors.
