In response to the growing development of a wide variety of circularity indicators (c-indicators), a taxonomy has been developed to gain clarity about their focuses, purposes and possible usages (e.g., benchmarking several circular economy business models, comparing two product designs on their potential circularity performance).
The advisor linked to this taxonomy works like an expert system in which eight queries are asked to direct users towards the most appropriate set(s) of circularity indicators.
To support the diffusion and usage of this selection tool, it is now accessible through a web-based platform: https://c-indicators.000webhostapp.com/index.php
It is particularly intended to industrial practitioners such as designers, engineers, managers, as well as decision-makers or policy-makers, who want to learn how they could identify and implement suitable circularity indicators (i.e. well-aligned with their needs) in practice in their CE projects. Interestingly, two tutorial videos (one explaining how to use the advisor, and one experiencing it through an industrial case) are also embodied in the web platform: http://www.circulareconomyindicators.com/advisor.php
