EAGLES (Expert Advisory Group on Language Engineering Standards) is an initiative of the European Commission, funded within the framemork of the "Linguistic Research and Engineering" programme, which aims at accelerating the provision of standards for:

• very large-scale language resources (such as text corpora, computational lexicons and speech corpora);
• means of manipulating such knowledge, via computational linguistic formalisms, mark up languages and various software tools;
• means of assessing and evaluating resources, tools and products.
