Data Quality Systems in openLCA Own data quality systems can be defined by the user, or existing ones can be used (such as the ecoinvent Pedigree matrix). These matrices can be used at three levels: For the general data quality of a process; this is only for...
Automatic and graphical modeling in openLCA openLCA allows both an automatic and graphical creation of product systems. If you want the software to create automatically the connections, you can select the “Add connected processes” option in the product...
Monte Carlo simulation Uncertainty calculation using Monte Carlo simulation is possible in openLCA. All uncertainty distributions that are defined in the flows, parameters and characterisation factors are taken into account for the simulation, except the one from the...
Contribution tree The contribution tree is available when calculating a product system with the “Analysis” calculation option. It provides the upstream total LCI or LCIA results per tier in the product system breaking down the results into the upstream...
Parameters Whenever values are to be defined in openLCA (e.g. defining the inputs/outputs for a process) it can be done via typing in the concrete value, using a formula or using complex calculation rules. The use of parameters is available in different levels, i.e....
