The proposed ontology design pattern 1 is … The proposed ontology design pattern 1 is meant to form a common core for the semantic description of key elements of life cycle inventories. A solar panel example: assessing the impacts of operating a solar array goes beyond the pure manufacturing and assembly of the photovoltaic modules. It also includes transportation emissions It also includes transportation emissions,
installation emissions,
operation emissions,
and the final disposal emissions. Such assessment first requires the gathering of all relevant data from different sources into a so-called Life Cycle Inventory (LCI),
followed by the actual assessment of the environmental impacts based on the gathered data,
used models,
and the literature. Understanding the complex impact of products is crucial for arriving at,
and maintaining,
a sustainable world where human needs are met without causing harm to the environment or impacting the ability of future generations to meet their needs.
