WEBINAR RECORDING - CDOP: Adopting an Open Data Protocol for Interoperability in Carbon Data Confirmation

Carbon markets depend on reliable, structured data — yet inconsistent field names, manual exports, and bespoke formats continue to create inefficiencies across the market, from project developers to ratings agencies to buyers.

Join the Carbon Data Open Protocol (CDOP) co-chairs and two early adopters for an update on how CDOP is progressing and what implementation looks like in practice.

In this webinar, we discuss:

• CDOP's progress since launch: 75+ members, an expanding schema, and the roadmap to full pre-issuance coverage by end of 2026

• How GitHub enables transparent, versioned, and collaboratively governed schema development

• Implementation case studies from CDOP members, Equitable Earth and Eco Registry

You'll see how to:

Access the schema — Navigate CDOP's GitHub repository, documentation, and validation tools, designed for both technical and non-technical users

Implement without building from scratch — See how early adopters have mapped existing data to the CDOP schema, exposed it via API or standardized data exports, and extended it where organizational needs exceed current coverage

Contribute to ongoing development — Engage with working group sessions, submit feedback, and help shape a standard that serves the entire market
