* Modelling of product structures and life cycle scenarios.
* Intuitively usable by means of a navigation tree with all operations easily accessible.
* Indicator based ecological assessments, considering the products complete life.
* Normalisation of results to a functional unit.
* Arrangement of results by components, life cycle phases, or indicator methods.
* Easy back tracing of ecological hotspots through the product structure.
* Consideration of service life, reuse, and replacement of components by the definition individual life times.
* Automatic and adjustable prediction of common life cycle processes.
* Material and item statistics.
* Creation of expressive charts.
* Export of structure and results as spreadsheets, bitmaps, or bar charts.
* Automatic calculation of masses and volumes by subordinate components or material density.
* Extensive and extendable ecological database, currently containing 36 different indicator types from the areas single score, equivalent, and inventory.
* The database currently provides ecological data for more than 380 processes.
* Project storage in physical files (ecologiCAD file format) or object database systems (JDO standard).
* Creation and synchronisation of project files directly from the CAD System Pro/Engineer 2001 or Wildfire.
* Programmable Interface (API) for developing further import / export processors and other add-ons.
* Runs on all platforms with a JAVA runtime environment version 1.4 or higher.
