Data Quality Rating rules and review requirements for Environmental Footprint datasets
This document provides the rules for evaluating the Data Quality Rating (DQR) of Environmental Footprint (EF) compliant datasets.
The document provides guidance to the dataset developer and reviewer on how to evaluate each data quality criterion. Additionally, the document includes indications on the use and interpretation of the DQR. It represents the basis for possible future adaptations of DQR rules in EF studies. Reviewer eligibility requirements for EF datasets, review types and review report are also defined in this document.
This report was prepared by JRC as a support in the context of the Administrative Arrangement with DG Environment to illustrate the DQR rules for the development of EF4.0 datasets. It has been developed through several interactions among the European Commission, EF Data Working Group and EF Technical Advisory Board.
