Mapper SDG
Enter or paste a descriptive text to find out which SDGs it relates to.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What type of text can I input into the tool?
You can paste any text of at least 150 characters, but at least 400 characters are recommended for optimal results. You can use the Mapper for a research abstract, a section of a paper, or a project proposal. The tool works best when the text is clear, descriptive, and coherent.
2. How many Sustainable Development Goals can it detect?
The Mapper can identify one or more SDGs relevant to the text you provided by analyzing the terms, concepts, and language used. It returns up to 6 goals, distinguishing between those most relevant for the University and those of secondary relevance, with a maximum of 3 per category.
3. How reliable are the results?
Based on advanced language models and publicly available SDG data, the algorithm provides indicative results that are useful for preliminary analyses, self-assessment, or exploratory purposes. These results do not replace expert human judgment but can serve as a valuable complement.
4. Does the system support only Italian?
No, the Mapper is also able to process texts in other languages, although it is optimized for Italian and English.
5. What does the distinction between primary and secondary results mean?
The Mapper is trained to perform at its best within the educational and research context of Politecnico di Milano. It therefore returns as primary results the SDGs most commonly found in those contexts. If the Mapper also detects less frequent SDGs, it lists them as secondary results.

1. What kind of text can I input into the tool?
You can paste any text segment with at least 150 characters. For optimal results, provide at least 400 characters: abstracts, excerpts from publications, or project proposals. It works best with clear and coherent content.
2. How many Sustainable Development Goals can it detect?
The system can identify one or more SDGs relevant to the text. It returns up to 3, prioritizing those most commonly found in academic teaching and research, based on concepts and language.
3. How reliable are the results?
The results are generated by advanced language models and public data. They are indicative, useful for preliminary analysis and evaluation support, but do not replace expert judgment.
4. Does the system support only Italian?
No. Italian and English are recommended for best results, but the mapper can also process texts in other languages.
