Objectif
The EU aims to transforming 150 European regions into sustainable and climate resilient regions by 2030. VALORADA contributes to address this challenge by co-developing tested FAIR customizable data-manipulation tools to access available climate datasets and to enable the sharing, community validation and use of locally socioeconomic, demographic and Earth-Observation data. In a rigorous transdisciplinary approach, the respective risks of climate change are analysed in five demonstrators in Europe with the local actors. Data required for the analysis are compiled from the various already existing repositories (e.g. Climate Data Store) and locally-sourced non-climate data catalogues processed by local communities and regions, prototype analysis tools developed in an iterative process, tested by the actors and subsequently improved. We will co-develop and make available prototype climate data and non-climate data manipulation tools to support and improve existing data portals and platforms and to enable user-oriented multi-data integration. VALORADA aims to reach TRL 7 and above.
VALORADA’s tools will enable to acquire different useful climate and non-climate data and make them “interoperable” in terms of metadata, as well as tools able to harmonise the geographical and time references chosen for the data. “Analyst toolbox” will be composed of tools able to combine different kinds of data all relevant for assessing climate risks and to calculate resulting indicators.
VALORADA will contribute to scaling up to 150 regions through the implementation of dedicated scalability and replicability activities with at least 10 European regions, and through strong collaboration with other Horizon projects. Additional activities include capacity-building schemes for end users as well as providers of climate services. VALORADA will explore and assess the options to facilitate the connection of the VALORADA data tools to the Copernicus Atmosphere Data Store.
