The workflow for updating material intensities in *premise* consists of the following steps:
* *Data collection*: Material intensity data is sourced from literature and stored in structured files.
* *Data processing*: The collected data is processed to align with the database, including unit conversions and mapping to relevant datasets.
* *Inventories*: Additional inventories for metals production (e.g., Cobalt, Lithium, Vanadium) are added to the database.
