Types of data at a glance

Data is classified into various types based on its content. The first categorisation is between qualitative data and quantitative data . Qualitative data is non-numeric, such as modes of transport or favourite colour, whereas quantitative data is numerical data, such as age or number of children . Qualitative data is also called categorical data , because it takes certain categories, rather than numerical values , or descriptive data. 

Quantitative data is then further split into two sub-groups, discrete and continuous data . Discrete data is data which can only take certain values (like whole numbers ), such as shoe size, whereas continuous data can take any value in a given range, such as height or weight. Generally, discrete data is countable (usually integers) whereas continuous data is measured to a given degree of accuracy (e.g. decimal places). 

The distinction between primary and secondary data relates to the method of data collection . Primary data is that which we have collected ourselves – for example, by collecting data from answers to a questionnaire . Secondary data is a set of data which has been collected by someone else and made available for our use – for example, data provided by the ONS (the Office for National Statistics).

Different types of data require different representations in charts or graphs . For example, a bar graph is a good choice for displaying discrete data , but a histogram should be used for continuous data . Some, like a box plot , can be used to display any quantitative data , whereas a pie chart is most appropriate for qualitative data .

Looking forward, students can then progress to additional Statistics worksheets , for example the line graph worksheet , the pie chart worksheet , or the stratified sampling worksheet .

For more teaching and learning support on Statistics our GCSE maths lessons provide step by step support for all GCSE maths concepts.

GHG Protocol tools enable companies and cities to develop comprehensive and reliable inventories of their GHG emissions, and help countries and cities track progress toward their climate goals. 

Calculating emissions is a multi-step process. An accurate and useful inventory can only be developed after careful attention to quality control issues and to the activity data required. Only then should emissions be estimated. Companies should consult GHG Protocol’s Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standar d  for guidance on the entire inventory development process.

Below is a complete listing of all tools developed by GHG Protocol. Our tools enable companies to develop comprehensive and reliable inventories of their GHG emissions. Each tool reflects best-practice methods that have been extensively tested by industry experts. Many tools are accompanied by a PDF guidance document, which provides step-by-step guidance on the use of a tool and should be consulted first. Most companies will need to apply more than one tool to cover their emissions.

There are different resources for navigating GHG Protocol tools:

• Cross-sector tools : Applicable to many industries and businesses regardless of sector.
• Country-specific tools :  Customized for particular developing countries.
• Sector-specific tools : Principally designed for the specific sector or industry listed, though they may be applicable to other situations.
• Tools for countries and cities : These tools help countries and cities track progress toward their climate goals. 

Review Service

The “Built on GHG Protocol” mark recognizes tools and guidance that are in conformance with a GHG Protocol standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn the answers to some of the most  commonly asked questions  regarding the GHG Protocol’s GHG accounting tools.

Cross-Sector Tools

These tools are applicable to many industries and businesses regardless of sector. Note: International emission factors for electricity use are no longer available from the GHGP website and can be purchased from the IEA .

 This workbook contains cross-sector emission factors and unit conversions that can be used to estimate emissions from stationary combustion, purchased electricity, and mobile combustion.

The RAC tool calculates the HFC and PFC emissions from the manufacture, servicing, and/or disposal of RAC equipment. The tool offers three methods: A sales based approach for manufacturers and users; a life cycle stage approach for users; and a basic screening approach that is intended to help companies gauge whether or not their emissions merit the use of one of the other, more advanced methods.

Country-Specific Tools

These GHG calculation tools have been customized for particular developing countries.

Download tool and guidance here . 

Sector-Specific Tools

These tools are principally designed for the specific sector or industry listed, though they may be applicable to other situations.

The Aluminum tool, jointly developed by the International Aluminum Institute and the GHG Protocol, allows the CO 2  and PFC emissions from primary aluminum production to be calculated. 

The Adipic acid tool allows the N 2 O emissions from adipic acid production to be estimated. It requires data on the amount of adipic acid produced. The tool also calculates any emissions reductions associated with the use of emissions control technologies.

The Ammonia tool requires data on the amounts of ammonia that a plant has produced. The tool allows emissions reductions associated with the use of by-product hydrogen to be calculated.

The CSI tool is for estimating GHG emissions from cement manufacture. This clinker based tool is suitable for when the amount of clinker consumed is known.

This tool is for estimating GHG emissions from cement manufacture. This tool requires data only on annual cement production. Emissions are calculated using clinker: cement ratios and CaCO3: raw meal ratios. This tool is based on the U.S. EPA’s ClimateWise program (1999).

The Iron and Steel tool provides two different methods for calculating CO 2  emissions. One method requires data on the quantities of reducing agents and blast furnace additives used, as well as the quantities of the carbonate fluxes introduced into the furnace. The alternative method requires data on the amount of iron or steel produced, as well as of the carbonate fluxes. The emissions calculation from either method can be adjusted to account for the export of carbon-bearing byproducts.

The HCFC–22 tool provides two different methods for calculating HFC-23 emissions from HCFC-22 production. One requires data on the flow rate and composition of the HFC-23 exit streams. The other requires data on the amount of HCFC-22 that has been produced. Both allow the emissions reductions associated with the use of emissions control technologies to be calculated.

The Nitric acid tool allows the N 2 O emissions from nitric acid production to be estimated. It requires data on the amount of nitric acid produced. The tool also calculates any emissions reductions associated with the use of emissions control technologies. 

The Pulp and Paper tool offers a collection of tools that cover the emission sources typically associated with a pulp and paper plant. It is a joint product of the  International Council of Forest and Paper Associations  and the GHG Protocol.

The Semiconductor tool calculates the PFC emissions from semi-conductor wafer production. Required data include the quantities of gas that have been both consumed in wafer production and destroyed using abatement technologies, and the number of wafers produced by size.

The Wood Products tool offers a collection of tools that cover the emission sources typically associated with a Wood Products plant. 

The Lime tool allows the CO 2  emissions from lime production to be calculated. It requires data on the quantities of the different lime types produced. 

Tools for Countries and Cities

These tools help countries and cities track progress toward their climate goals.

This tool helps countries and cities assess progress toward national and subnational greenhouse gas reduction goals.
