Where and how do you source your data?
Data is sourced and metric results calculated by the organisations that decide to conduct an assessment using the LandScale system. LandScale provides detailed, field-tested guidance to ensure that the data is of sufficient quality and that it is collected and analyzed accurately. Assessment teams have access to a comprehensive database of data collection tools and secondary data sets. The LandScale validation mechanism includes review of each step in the assessment process by the LandScale team, as well as a review of results by local experts.
