One of the objectives of the CASCADE (Cooperation and Standards for Life Cycle Assessment Data in Europe) project is to use the existing Product Data Management (PDM) standards for the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data in order to create the model for a reference database, to test it and to develop a repository for terminology. A collaborative work between research, government and industrial organisations will develop the information model for a generic LCA database and the procedure for implementing it. A data base prototype will be tested with some trial population and useful suggestion will be taken for further standards development Besides, training tools and software demo will be developed for enlarging the number of the users and gather more interest; the software will have a commercial use after the end of the project.
