Carbon Tracing Module
a. Data Import Module
TCCTV Platform provides API for data import. The API will:
- do basic schema validation
- enforce tolerance checks according to PDD
- apply AI-based anomaly detection
Tolerance Error Handling
In ACI's DMRV manual, two levels of tolerance are defined, leading to 4 scenarios.
| Case 1 | Case 2 | Case 3 | Case 4 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Project Proponent's Data | Within Range (normal) | Out of Range Within First Tolerance Level | Out of Range Within Second Tolerance Level | Out of Second Tolerance Level |
| Project Proponent | Submit realtime data | Submit realtime data | SHOULD NOT submit realtime data after receiving notification MUST provide justification for out-of-range emission reduction | SHOULD NOT submit realtime data after receiving notification MUST submit written report to ACI |
| DMRV Platform | Submit emission reduction to ACI Registry daily | Submit emission reduction to ACI Registry daily Record in Exceptional Report | Record in Exceptional Report SHALL enter a "suspended" state and reject Proponent's further submission in API Notify Proponent SHALL NOT submit out-of-range emission reduction to ACI Registry Proponent MAY provide justification and confirm i) release of this "suspended" state; ii) confirm re-submission of out-of-range emission reduction via DMRV Platform | Record in Exceptional Report SHALL enter a "suspended" state and reject Proponent's further submission in API Notify Proponent and ACI SHALL NOT submit out-of-range emission reduction to ACI Registry ACI MAY provide justification and confirm release of this "suspended" state via DMRV Platform |
b. AI Consistency Check Module
Unlabelled data—whether historical or collected during the carbon project's initialization phase—is processed by the Model Selection Training Pipeline to train a best suited model for anomaly detection.
c. Exceptional Report Record
Both tolerance checks and AI-based anomaly detection will generate Exceptional Report when an exception/anomaly is detected. The Exceptional Reports will also be stored in blockchain for trusted persistence storage.
