Coupling GIS and LCA for biodiversity assessments of land use. Pt.1: Inventory modeling
Abstract
Conclusions: This study has demonstrated that GIS-based inventory modeling of land use allows important refinements in LCA theory and practice. Using GIS, land use can be modeled as a geospatial and nonlinear function of output. For each spatially explicit process, land use can be expressed within the conventional structure of LCA methodology as a set of elementary input flows of habitat types.
