Survey on the international recognition of the EDIP Methodology for life cycle
assessment
| The quality of LCA data is in general regarded problematic. |
| Some experts recommend a considerable effort focusing on the collection of generic and
specific data. |
| Quality assurance of data should be prioritised, and more focus should be given to
sources, e.g. origin, traceability, responsibility and uncertainty. |
| The EDIP database should be updated to a level similar to that of the SimaPro database
and regular updates should be carried out. |
| Many prefer the SPINE format, which is well documented and compatible with ISO. |
| ISO 14048 is expected as international standard, that will replace other formats soon. |
