Abstract :
During September 2003, interviews took place to collect data to develop a technology roadmap for rehabilitation engineering. The emerging themes were used to create the roadmap. Criteria were developed to endorse the data prior to the representation process. Added value was by the collection and representation of supporting evidence. Roadmapping ‘best practice will facilitate the capture of essential data, represented in a format that is accessible, delivered in an appropriate format, to the right person at the right time.
