Exploring SimaPro

This half-day course will allow you to explore the features, benefits, methods, and data included with SimaPro. We will look in depth at the life cycle inventory data that comes with SimaPro, discussing details such as process vs input/output data and system vs unit processes. From there, we will create our own process and explore the different impact assessment methods included with SimaPro, using one or more of them to analyze our process. We’ll look at sensitivity analysis and SimaPro’s extensive end-of life modeling capability. We’ll briefly touch on uncertainty analysis and costing. Then we’ll review the different versions available to help you determine which one would be most appropriate for your application.
