One day workshops for data providers take place at international conferences. Participants learn how to use the various new features of ecoinvent and how to make corrections to an existing dataset.
The freeware "ecoEditor for ecoinvent version 3" is the tool data providers and editors use to create, edit, review and upload datasets for the future versions of the ecoinvent database.
The ecoSpold2 format replaces the ecoSpold format 1 for the new version 3 of the ecoinvent database released in May 2013.
