No, Higg MSI data is designed to be used only in the Higg Product tools for a few reasons. We have specific agreements with database providers about the licensing conditions of the data. The Higg MSI also contains proprietary data from individual companies that would not want their data exposed in any more detail than we currently have (the LCIA midpoints) and full LCA inventory data is not available.
Further, the Higg MSI is not organized as a traditional database. The Higg MSI LCI datasets are built to function very specifically for the Higg MSI and its data structure (for example, the accounting for transport and loss rates). In addition, many of the processes cannot be used on their own, as they have to be combined with other processes in a particular way to represent a full kg of material.
