Dutch term or phrase: predictieve reflectiewerkgroep
De predictieve reflectiewerkgroep stelt voor om drie zones rond de xxx uit te stippelen en dit aan de hand van de risicobeoordeling.

Could you suggest a good translation for "uitstippelen" in this context.

Thanks a million.

outline/marking off/map out
Explanation:
'HI Davorka, 'uitstippelen' really means drawing an interrupted line, marking off traffic lanes, etc., at first I thought in this context it is obviously laying out, designing a plan, but when I took a second look at the text, [om drie zones rond de xxx uit te stippelen] it really does look like they are actually planning to mark off territory. Anyhow, you have the context to refer back to. Holler help!Marijke

Van Dale offers: outline=map/trace/chalk out, delineate een plan, methode, beleid/delineate a plan, method, policy, een route/map out a route
