    This fact sheet informs about the course which provides the necessary knowledge to build a sustainable National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (NGHGI) and assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals from the land use sector. It focuses on the biological and physical process that lead to GHG fluxes from land use-related activities.

    This fact sheet describes the course that provides the necessary knowledge to build a sustainable National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (NGHGI) and assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the agriculture sector. It focuses on the biological and physical process that lead to the production of emissions from agriculture-related activities.

    Parties to the Paris Agreement are required to submit their national inventory report of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions, in accordance with the modalities, procedures and guidelines for the transparency framework for action and support. The guidelines require all countries to report their GHG emissions/removals estimates separately for the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector, using the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories. To develop the LULUCF GHG inventory, the land representation information is of utmost importance. This is because it provides the area information for estimating associated carbon stock changes and non-CO2 emissions. While countries can obtain data on land-use classification by using remote sensing information, there is still the need to appropriately process this information to develop a consistent land representation. The LoGIc tool was designed to help governments, national experts and GHG inventory practitioners in developing the land representation, in accordance with the newly adopted common reporting tables for submitting the inventory to the UNFCCC.
