The archival landscape comprises, for each country, the different archival institutions. It is the entry point to the 3-layer structure - country, institution, archival content - of the portal. It is the first level of this hierarchical structure, on which the navigation tree structure of the advanced search as well as the directory of the portal is based.
Each country manager is responsible of the archival landscape of his country (creating the countries is done by the general system administrator). A Country Manager can organise his/her national part of the Archival Landscape as he/she sees fit, since geographical, thematic, administrative classifications of the archival institutions are different in each country. The aim of this national coordination is to define the structure of the archival institutions within the country.
It may be necessary or useful to discuss it with the institutions of a country to agree on the definitive structure. It’s recommended to have your structure in mind before beginning the actual creation of it in the Dashboard.
Note that the Archival Landscape's structure should not be changed too often because this has consequences on the data indexing.
