Indicator

A reference to the Term describing the emission e.g., CH4, to air, crop residue burning; the resource use e.g., Freshwater withdrawals, during Cycle; or the characterised environmental impact indicator e.g., Terrestrial ecotoxicity potential (1,4-DCBeq).

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the term.termType must have one of the following values: emission, endpointIndicator, characterisedIndicator, resourceUse.

For certain emissions (`Pesticide, to ...`, `Ionising compounds, to`, and `Heavy metals, to...`) the element or compound that was emitted.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the key.termType must have one of the following values: fuel, material, waste, inorganicFertiliser, otherInorganicChemical, otherOrganicChemical, pesticideAI, soilAmendment, veterinaryDrug.

The quantity. If an average, it should always be the mean.

An array of up to 1000 random samples from the posterior distribution of value

The standard deviation of value.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• statsDefinition must also be set.

The minimum of value.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• statsDefinition must also be set.

The maximum of value.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• statsDefinition must also be set.

What the descriptive statistics (sd, min, max, and value) are calculated across, or whether they are simulated or the output of a model. spatial refers to descriptive statistics calculated across spatial units (e.g., pixels) within a region or country. time refers to descriptive statistics calculated across units of time (e.g., hours).

Possible values are: sites, cycles, impactAssessments, replications, animals, other observations, time, spatial, regions, simulated, modelled

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• one of the following must be valid:
  • value must also be set.
  • min must also be set.
  • max must also be set.
  • sd must also be set.

The number of observations the descriptive statistics are calculated over.

For emissions only, a field which matches the methodTier in each Cycle Emission.

Possible values are: background, measured, tier 1, tier 2, tier 3, not relevant

A reference to the Term describing the method or model for calculating these data.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the methodModel.termType must have one of the following values: model, methodEmissionResourceUse.

A free text field, describing the method or model used for calculating these data. For example, it can be used to specify the version of the method or model, and/or the software used to carry out the assessment.

For emissions or resource uses from Inputs production, the Term describing the Input. For characterised indicators or endpoint indicators, if this Indicator represents the quantity of that indicator caused by producing one or more Inputs used by this Cycle, the Term describing the Inputs.

inputs cannot be duplicated. The following fields determine whether a Term is unique: @id

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the inputs.termType must have one of the following values: biologicalControlAgent, electricity, feedFoodAdditive, fuel, material, inorganicFertiliser, organicFertiliser, biochar, fertiliserBrandName, pesticideAI, pesticideBrandName, seed, soilAmendment, substrate, veterinaryDrug, water, transport, animalProduct, crop, aquaticCrop, forage, cropResidue, liveAnimal, liveAquaticSpecies, processedFood, excretaManagement, wasteManagement, operation, otherOrganicChemical, otherInorganicChemical.

For background Emissions, the Term(s) describing the Animal(s) they are associated with.

animals cannot be duplicated. The following fields determine whether a Term is unique: @id

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the animals.termType must have one of the following values: liveAnimal, liveAquaticSpecies.

For indicators describing an emission or resource use related to inputs production, the country where the impacts occurred.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the country.termType must have one of the following values: region.

For emissions or resource uses created by an operation, the Term describing the operation.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the operation.termType must have one of the following values: operation.

For land occupation and transformation, the term from the land cover glossary that describes the current land cover of the occupied land (e.g., Cropland or Almond tree). This is a required field for land occupation and land transformation resource uses.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the landCover.termType must have one of the following values: landCover.

For land transformation only, the land cover term that describes the previous land cover of the transformed land. The transformation period is defined by the term (e.g., 20 years, 100 years). If the land was transformed from multiple different land covers (e.g., 50% from forest to cropland and 50% from cropland to cropland), create one Indicator for each transformation. This is a required field for land transformation resource uses.

This field has additional validation rules when set:

• the previousLandCover.termType must have one of the following values: landCover.

For emissions or resource uses created during a Transformation, the Term describing the Transformation.
