You can view the ongoing data collected within a project in the Data Inputs section of the project.

​
Types of Data Inputs

There are three primary types of data inputs in Mangrove:
  • Events: Events are inputs that occur with high frequency. Each event is a set of measurements (Datapoints) that represent operational activity that is dynamic and regularly changing from batch to batch in a project. Examples:

CO2 Injection Measurement (event)

7 datapoints:
  • Hourly Mass Injected (t)
  • Mass Flow Rate (t/s)
  • Mass Totalyzer (t)
  • Injectate temperature (°C)
  • Injectate density (kg/L)
  • Meter status
  • Meter last calibration date

Biochar Delivery (event)

4 datapoints:
  • Wet Mass Transported (kg)
  • Loaded Distance Transported (km)
  • Deadhead Distance Transported (km)
  • Vehicle Type
  • Static Inputs: Static inputs hold datapoints that remain constant over an extended period. They are used for the calculations across multiple production batches within a project. Example: % of Facility Electricity Usage Related to Carbon Production

Emissions Factor - local grid electricity (static)

  • 0.00043 t/kW.h
  • Relevant date range: 2025-01-01 - 2025-12-31

Conversion Factor - metric t / lb

  • 0.00045 t/lb
  • Resource Library Inputs: Resource library inputs are a variant of static input, drawn from Resource Libraries available in Mangrove. These Resource Libraries are sourced from scientific databases and provide shared variables that are used in production and quantification model calculations. Examples: Global Warming Potentials of greenhouse gases

​
Configuring Event Types

Events Types have to first be configured for the Project, before you can collected data for them.
  • Configuring Event Type: Add or modify ongoing types of events that can be collected per project. This can be done in the Data Inputs > Input Settings section of each Project.

​
Configuring Static Inputs

  • Add or adjust the values of static inputs. This can be done in the Data Inputs > Static Inputs section of each Project.
  • Ensure Static Inputs are used in the accounting dataflow
    In order for inputs to be considered in model calculations, the production models need to have input nodes that reference the data from these event types or static inputs. See building accounting models, and please reach out to Mangrove Systems if you need help configuring your model.

​
Uncertainty

You can set uncertainty on specific inputs to capture and report the uncertainty in your batch calculations.
