How can I import data directly from the life cycle data network (LCDN)?

Question

Can I import/access data that is registered in LCDN registry through the "ILCD network import" function?

If so, which URL, user and password should be used to access the registry?

Kind regards,

Pieter

Hi Pieter,

1) Create an empty database

2) Select ILCD network import

3) Specify the connection (http://eplca.jrc.ec.europa.eu/LCDN/contactList.xhtml?stock=default the address has to end with /resource e.g. http://weee-lci.recylum.com/ICV/resource)

4) Click search, select datasets and finish

I hope this helps

Best

Hey,

Thanks for your reply.

Does that mean that one cannot connect to the LCDN directly, and thereby cannot get access to all datasets that are approved and shared by the LCDN at once? But instead has to go to each individual node to get access to the datasets?

Kind regards,
Pieter

Hi Pieter, as far as I know, the LCDN consists of individual nodes which can only be accessed individually. I do not think it is possible to retrieve all data from all nodes at the same time. I might be mistaken though.
