Radar Inversión distinguishes between announcements, investment plans, projects in development, works and completed operations. The Agenda is reviewed continuously and updated whenever stages, amounts, milestones or potential delays change.

Radar criterion: a project is included when there is an identifiable source, a concrete initiative and a signal that can be tracked over time.
