Robust conversion between LCAx and other software is a cornerstone in LCAx's value proposition.

Therefore, we want to expand the current functionality to be able to convert between some of the most used LCA software.

LCAx <-> LCAByg LCAByg is probably the most widely use LCA calculation software on the Danish market. For that reason we want to provide native conversion between LCAx and LCAByg.

EPDx <-> ILCD+EPD ILCD+EPD is the European Commission's format for EPDs and widely used as a data structure in Europe. That is why we want to support conversion between EPDx and ILCD+EPD.

EPDx <-> openEPD openEPD is the underlying format for the many EPDs in Building Transparency's EC3 tool. Integrating with openEPD will open up the door for working with EPDs outside of Europe.

Conversion Website To make these conversion functionalities more accessible, we are going to make a webpage, where files and data can be converted between the different data formats.

LCAx Example Library We want to create a library of LCAx formatted example projects to show case to users. Videncenter om Bygningers Klimapåvirkninger - VCBK has a library of case buildings that we would like to convert and use as a basis for our LCAx library.
