Australian LCA Database (Centre for Design)
The Australian LCA Database was initially developed as part of a joint project between the Centre for Design at RMIT and the Co-operative Research Centre for Waste Management and Pollution Control. Over the five years since its initial development data has been updated and new data added work undertaken at the Centre for Design and by other SimaPro users around Australia.
The data includes fuels, electricity, transport, building and packaging materials, waste management and some data on agricultural production.
The database is made available to all SimaPro users in Australia and New Zealand.
