Descrizione del progetto
Previsioni meteorologiche innovative per le città
Le aree metropolitane europee stanno sempre più soffrendo gli effetti dei cambiamenti climatici. Le ondate di calore prolungate costituiscono una minaccia per la salute della popolazione. Il progetto CityCLIM, finanziato dall’UE, si prefigge di sviluppare una piattaforma basata su cloud per fornire vari servizi meteorologici e climatici specifici per le aree metropolitane. CityCLIM contribuirà in modo incisivo alla realizzazione di servizi climatici urbani tecnologicamente avanzati per cittadini e amministrazioni municipali per fare fronte alle isole urbane di calore. Al fine di rendere i servizi meteorologici e climatici previsti il più possibile orientati all’applicazione, il progetto si svolgerà in stretta collaborazione con quattro città pilota: Karlsruhe in Germania, la città di Lussemburgo, Valencia in Spagna e Salonicco in Grecia.
Obiettivo
The strategic objective of CityCLIM is to significantly contribute to delivering the next-generation of City Climate Services based on advanced weather forecast models enhanced with data both from existing, but insufficiently used, sources and emerging data sources, such as satellite data (e.g. Copernicus data) or data generated by Citizens Science approaches for Urban Climate Monitoring etc. For City Climate Services, data products of interest related to land surface properties, atmospheric properties (e.g. aerosol optical thickness), geometry etc. For all of those, information of interest concerns e.g. Copernicus data products and services that are already existing (e.g. based on Sentinel-3/OLCI, PROBA-V, SPOT, Sentinel-1, MetopASCAT data), will exist in the near future (based on already flying satellites such as Sentinel-2), or will exist in the mid-term (based on satellites currently under development) and long-term (based on satellites soon starting concept phase) future. The project will establish; (i) an open platform allowing for efficient building of services based on access to diverse data; (ii) enhanced weather models based on data from diverse existing and emerging sources; (iii) a set of City Climate Services customizable to specific needs of users in cities; and (iv) a generic Framework for building next generation of Urban Climate Services. CityCLIM will be driven by 4 Pilots addressing diverse climate regions in Europe (Luxembourg, Thessaloniki, Valencia, Karlsruhe) which will define requirements upon the tools to be developed, support specification and testing of the services and serve as demonstrators of the selected approaches and the developed technologies. The consortium will elaborate business plan to assure sustainability of the platform and services.
