EcoSpold Exchange Format
All data is well documented and available in EcoSpold, the internationally accepted exchange format. It can be viewed and processed in Microsoft Excel, providing valuable support for your work in research, industry and consulting. Using the integrated EcoSpold interface within Umberto, records can easily be imported and exported. This also applies to sets of LCI data from other databases in EcoSpold format.
Ecoinvent for Umberto Clients
When you buy one or more ecoinvent licenses, you purchase the right to use the data in ecoinvent version v2 (i.e. until the release of version v3). According to the license terms, a license for ecoinvent is required for any existing Umberto license. The following are contained in the ecoinvent database package for Umberto:
- ecoinvent's official documentation CD
- Online access to the regularly updated ecoinvent database
- Full records in an Umberto library on a separate DVD
Of course, we offer ecoinvent licenses without Umberto at excellent prices. We will gladly provide quotes for ecoinvent membership on request, with and without Umberto.
