MApper
Unified LCA · DSM/MFA · pLCA · AESA for environmental sustainability
The first desktop application that integrates Life Cycle Assessment, Dynamic Stock Modeling/Material Flow Analysis, prospective LCA, and Absolute Environmental Sustainability Assessment in a single workflow. Built for researchers who need system-level, time-resolved environmental impact analysis against planetary boundaries.
Four methods, one environment.
Every tool a life-cycle researcher needs: integrated so your models, data, and results stay coherent across methods.
Database Explorer
Import databases and explore them for your LCA.
pLCA Developer
Generate superstructure databases for your pLCA.
LCA Architect
Create your archetypes and run single-product LCA. Model both background and foreground systems.
Dynamic Stock Modeller
Initialize your dynamic stock model for your DSM/MFA study with coupled sub-systems.
Impact Assessment
Run single-product or system-level environmental impact assessment with LCA and pLCA.
AESA
Run AESA calculations to get environmental sustainability ratios.
From databases to planetary boundaries in three stages.
Import
Import ecoinvent databases, define archetypes with linked BOMs.
Model
Run DSM simulations, set technological learning rates, generate prospective databases.
Assess
Calculate impacts across manufacturing, operation, and end-of-life. Compare against planetary boundaries.
Open methodology.Reproducible results.PhD-grade rigor.
MApper is designed for system-level assessments. Methods are transparent and auditable. Results are reproducible. Compatible with ecoinvent cut-off, consequential, and APOS system models. If it holds up in your dissertation, it holds up everywhere.
