Description

ILCD is a large and complex data format, designed to allow for publication of unit processes, aggregated processes, and impact assessment data. This broad scope produced a complex format, with a typical dataset having over 100 fields spread across multiple files.

This complexity has significant downsides: cognitive overload, duplicated information, and non-compliant publication.

In this talk we discuss a survey of over 10 thousand real-world ILCD published processes, and derive a backwards-compatible and significantly simplified minimum viable ILCD format variant for publishing inventory data.
