LCIA method information |
Data set information |
Name of LCIA method or methodologyName of the data set. Composed as follows "LCIA methodology short name; Impact category/ies; midpoint/endpoint; Impact indicator; Source short name". Not applicable components are left out. Examples: "Impacts2007+; Climate change; midpoint; Global Warming Potential; IPCC 2001"; "ABC 2006; Acidification; endpoint; Species diversity loss; John Doe 2006"; "My-indicator2009; combined; endpoint; Ecopoints; various" | Super LCIA 2007 |
ClassificationOptional statistical or other classification of the data set. Typically also used for structuring LCA databases. |

General commentGeneral information about the data set, including e.g. general (internal, not reviewed) quality statements as well as information sources used. (Note: Please also check the more specific fields e.g. on "Intended application", "Advice on data set use" and the fields in the "Modelling and validation" section to avoid overlapping entries.) | LCIA method collection covering all main saveguard subjects human health, environment and resources in an advanced end-point
approach. |
Quantitative reference |
Reference quantity (flow property data set)"Flow property data set" of the reference quantity (flow property), in which the impact indicator values are measured. | Units of SuperLCIA2007-Ecopoints |
Time representativeness |
Reference yearReference year when the emission is assumed to take place, i.e. the start year of the time period for which the impact is modelled. For time-independent models "time independent" should be stated. | 2006 |
Duration of modelled impactTime period for which the impact is modelled. | 2009 |
Geographical representativeness |
Intervention locationSpecific, country, or region of the elementary flows' / exchanges' occurence for which the LCIA method(ology) is valid / modelled. [Note: Entry can be of type "two-letter ISO 3166 country code" for countries, "seven-letter regional codes" for regions or continents, or "market areas and market organisations", as predefined for the ILCD. Also a name for e.g. a specific plant etc. can be given here (e.g. "FR, Lyon, XY Company, Z Site"; user defined). ] | RER |
Geographical representativeness descriptionFurther explanation on additional aspects of the location, both regarding the intervention and the impact: whether certain areas are exempted from the location, whether data is only valid for certain sub-locations within the location indicated, or whether impact indicator values for certain elementary flows are extrapolated from another geographical area than indicated. Information on the use of generic intervention and/or impact locations, and other restrictions. | Integrated modelling across continental Europe incl. eastern Europe. Not valid if emissions are predominantly take place in cities or rural areas
or in a particular country. |
Impact model |
LCIA characterisation model(s) name(s)Name(s) of the model(s) used for calculating the LCIA impact indicator values (if any) | Foo |
LCIA characterisation model description and included sub-modelsDescription of the model used for calculating the LCIA impact indicator values, including underlying substance property data sources, background concentrations, etc. If an LCIA methodology comprises several LCIA methods, these are explicitly included in the description. Professional nomenclature is used for the description. Note that eventually included Normalisation and Weighting factors are described in the dedicated separate fields. | Bar |
Modelling and validation |
Validation |
Type of reviewType of review that has been performed regarding independency and type of review process. | Dependent internal reviewReviewer(s)/verifier(s) have been involved in collecting, modelling, or entering the data set information or inventory, have commissioned or
financed the work, or represent the process or product system (or quantiatitively relevant parts of it).
|
Administrative information |
Commissioner and goal |
Commissioner of data set (contact data set)"Contact data set" of the commissioner / financing party of the data collection / compilation and of the data set modelling. For groups of commissioners, each single organisation should be named. For data set updates and for direct use of data from formerly commissioned studies, also the original commissioner should be named. | EPLCA working group |
ProjectProject within which the data set was modelled in its present version. [Note: If the project was published e.g. as a report, this can be referenced in the "Publication of data set in:" field in the "Publication and ownership" sub-section. | Development of recommended LCIA factors for Europe |
Intended applicationsDocumentation of the intended application(s) of data collection and data set modelling. This indicates / includes information on the level of detail, the specifidity, and the quality ambition in the effort. | Development of officially recommended default LCIA factors for LCA studies submitted to the European Commission. |
Data generator |
Data set generator / modeller (contact data set)"Contact data set" of the person(s), working group(s), organisation(s) or database network, that generated the data set, i.e. being responsible for its correctness regarding methods, inventory, and documentation. | XY Consulting Ltd. |
Data entry by |
Time stamp (last saved)Date and time stamp of data set generation, typically an automated entry ("last saved"). | 2006-02-01 00:00:00 -05:00 |
Data set format(s) (source data set)"Source data set" of the used version of the ILCD format. If additional data format fields have been integrated into the data set file, using the "namespace" option, the used format namespace(s) are to be given. This is the case if the data sets carries additional information as specified by other, particular LCA formats, e.g. of other database networks or LCA softwares. | ILCD format |
Publication and ownership |
UUID of LCIA method data setAutomatically generated Universally Unique Identifier of this data set. Together with the "Data set version", the UUID uniquely identifies each data set. | 8b82be1e-c0ce-458f-a55f-113aa51b743a |
Data set versionVersion number of data set. First two digits refer to major updates, the second two digits to minor revisions and error corrections etc. The third three digits are intended for automatic and internal counting of versions during data set development. Together with the data set's UUID, the "Data set version" uniquely identifies each data set. | 00.00.000 |
Owner of data set (contact data set)"Contact data set" of the person or entity who owns this data set. (Note: this is not necessarily the publisher of the data set.) | EPLCA working group |
Copyright?Indicates whether or not a copyright on the data set exists. Decided upon by the "Owner of data set". [Note: See also field "Access and use restrictions".] | Yes |
Characterisation factors |
String (No URI available) (String) | InputFlow in input list of the process, e.g. resources from nature or energy carriers, or commodities and services entering from the technosphere.
(In case the flow has an negative "resulting amount" value this is equivalent to belonging to the output list of the process.) | 3.1415 | 3.1415 | 3.1415 | undefinedProbability distribution information not available. | 2 % | CalculatedStochiometric or other theoretical relations were used to calculate the amount of this flow. [Note: Calculations that include quantiatively
relevant expert judgement are of the type "Expert judgement".] | |
Reference to data source(s)Reference to "UUID of source"(s) in the "Source data set" of data source(s) used for modelling the value of this single LCIA factor e.g. a specific paper, questionnaire, monography etc. If, as typical, more than one data source was used, more than one source can be referenced. |
