Emission Element Mapping Summary
The Processing Elements Mapping page enables you to map an expression to emission factor categories, asset class, activity type, and reporting emission category by using the Expression Builder feature.

Mapping the Emission Elements
Activity Type- Emission Factor- Expression
Figure 8-7 The Activity Type- Emission Factor- Expression tab
- Emission Factor Category- This drop-down list contains the group level emission factor categories. This value is set in the instrument table.
- Asset Class- This drop-down list contains the pre-seeded asset classes.
- Activity Type- This drop-down list contains two pre-seeded activity types; Distance Travelled and Fuel Consumed
- Reporting Emission Category- This drop-down list contains pre-seeded emission categories. The final value that appears in this drop-down list is computed depending on the values that were selected in the Emission Factor Category, Asset Class, and Activity Type fields.
- Expression- This drop-down list contains the list of pre-seeded defined expressions.
- Add New Row- Click this button to add a new row to the table in order to map a new expression to an emission category, asset class, activity type, emission factor category. The same Emission Category can be mapped to a different Asset Class, Activity Type and Expression.
- Download- Use this button to download the expression in a .csv format.
- View- Click this icon to view the expression in View mode.
- Delete- Click this icon adjacent to a row to delete it.
Emission Factor Database- Hierarchy
Figure 8-8 The Emission Factor Database- Hierarchy tab
- Emission Factor Database Source- This field contains the source database for a particular hierarchy.
- Emission Category Hierarchy- This drop-down list contains a list of hierarchies that need to be used for a particular emission factor database. Out-of-the-box hierarchies defined by the user are supported.
- View- Click this icon to view the
hierarchy information of the emission category.:
- If a hierarchy was selected in the Emission Category Hierarchy field, then the Dimension, Folder, and Hierarchy fields are disabled and this window will be in View mode.
- If no hierarchy was selected in the Emission Category Hierarchy field, then the Dimension, Folder, and Hierarchy fields are enabled and the hierarchy details can be configured and viewed.
- Save - Click this icon to save the mappings.
- Refresh- Click this page to refresh the data on this page to their default values.
- Download- Click this icon to download the expression mappings in a .csv format.
