Using tags to search for content on RUDI
Each piece of content on RUDI is tagged with specific labels. The table below shows the tags used for the most frequently searched pieces of content.
If you wish to see all RUDI tags, then the 200 most frequently used tags are shown here.
Tags are shown in alpabetical order, and larger tags mean that there is more content available with that tag. Simply choose the tag that you're looking for, click, and you'll get a list of all published content related to that subject.
Specific initiatives or projects such as Thames Gateway or Growth Areas are tagged by name (as well as by subject tags), so looking for the matching tag will probably be the best way to locate specific content.
Projects are also tagged by geographical location when appropriate: for example, NE England, SW England, central England, France, USA, international, Europe.
Alternatively, you can use the guideline sections below to search for and select less specifically named content, simply by clicking on the relevant link.
Using RUDI search
We're still going through the process of tagging more than 30,000 pieces of content on RUDI, so please bear with us!
If you can't find what you need with tags, or you wish to search using simultaneous multiple keywords, for example "brownfield, housing", then use the RUDI search function.
