This webinar shows how a focus on data and information management in assurance can improve both the effectiveness of the assurance process and the value of that process for certifying enterprise, supply chain actors and the scheme owners themselves.

This document provides guidance for sustainability systems looking to collect or improve the collection of polygon location data. This is an updated version of guidance compiled and prepared by ISEAL and partners in 2020. The content has been refreshed and updated to reflect how geospatial technologies and practices have evolved in the last five years and includes a variety of different polygon collection options and technologies. 

This report explores the relevance of current trends in technology to sustainability standards – from mobile data collection and the internet of things, to open data and blockchains – and proposes a roadmap for development. 

The document at the bottom of this page provides a high level summary of what polygon location data is and why it is of significant value to sustainability standards. It aims to encourage decision makers within systems to consider the operational collection and use of polygon data within their organisations.
