This page is meant to document the methods used in identifying Fermi sources as possible very high energy (VHE) / TeV candidates, as well as categorizing those sources that are good candidates (as determined by these methods) for VHE emission. This page will track observations, both successful and otherwise, and help determine ways of improving on these selection methods.
