TNFD Data Lab 3: Data Quality, Proxies & Metric Integrity: Distinguishing Good vs Bad Nature Data

24 Oct 2026

24 October | 13:00 – 14:00 

HOST: TNFD

PARTNER: PBAF

VENUE: Tarson Room, Holiday Inn Yerevan Republic Square

FORMAT: Roundtable

DESCRIPTION

Many organisations lack clear guidance on assessing nature-related data quality. This can result in concerns about greenwashing, uncertainty over the use of proxy data and hesitation when primary data is unavailable.

Roundtable focus:

  • What constitutes good data?
    Examine practical approaches to assessing data quality, including the relative strengths and limitations of direct site measurements, regional field proxies and sector-level input-output models.
  • When and how to use proxies
    Discuss appropriate use cases and confidence thresholds for proxy data across direct operations and value chains.
  • Integrating field and modelled data
    Explore how organisations can combine ground-truth observations with modelled datasets, including biodiversity integrity and pressure-impact models, to support decision-making and disclosure.

SPEAKERS

  • Wijnand Broer, Programme Manager, PBAF (Facilitator)
