INFO:This task will provide an up-to-date overview of the existing relevant methodologies, tools, best practices and repositories of solutions for the climate adaptation and risk management of the built environment. The mapping activity will address different spatial scales (buildings, neighbourhoods and communities) in relation to the most relevant climatic hazards affecting the central European macro-region. The mapping activity will be carried out at both transnational and local levels in the participating countries. The task will develop an online interactive inventory accessible from the project's website and from relevant adaptation platforms (e.g. Climate ADAPT). A kick-start exchange session (workshop) will be organised among PPs to share their knowledge and experience. A roundtable with relevant stakeholders in each of the 5 pilot territories will be organised to collect inputs. Task leader is LP1.

Climate Change and Climate Risk Information Portals

INFO: Climate change and climate risk information portals are online platforms created by government bodies, environmental agencies, and organizations to provide critical information and resources to help individuals, businesses, and municipalities understand and respond to the impacts of climate change. These portals typically include:

  • Data on Climate Impacts: Information on how climate change is affecting specific regions, such as increased temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and the frequency of extreme weather events.
  • Adaptation Strategies: Practical recommendations, guidelines, and tools to adapt buildings, cities, and regions to the evolving climate, such as making infrastructure more resilient to floods, heatwaves, or storms.
  • Climate Protection Plans: Policies and actions that individuals, businesses, and governments can take to mitigate or reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Collaboration and Networking Tools: Resources to foster information exchange between different actors, such as municipalities, disaster response teams, and environmental professionals.
Task

For Each of the 5 regions do the following :

Identify the Key Climate Risk Portals in your Region: Each region usually has its own governmental and environmental bodies responsible for climate risk management. These might be state agencies, national environmental offices, or dedicated climate adaptation portals. (see table below)

For each identified portal, collect the following information:

  • Portal Operator: Who runs the portal (e.g., a federal agency, state agency, or NGO)?
  • Link to the Portal: A URL to access the portal.
  • Content Overview: Summarize the key information available on the portal. For example, does it provide climate risk maps, adaptation strategies, or research findings

Valuable working aids are available for the practical implementation of climate protection and climate adaptation in cities, regions, and the building sector. Moreover, the portal provides a selection of working aids to assist in implementing climate change adaptation measures for the building and urban development. klimastadtraum
Bavaria/Germany Bavarina State Office for the Environment (lfu) The Bavarian State Office for the Environment (LfU) provides resources and strategies for climate adaptation in Bavaria. The site includes information on sector-specific impacts and measures for climate adaptation, tools like the Bavarian Climate Information System (BayKIS), and publications such as the Bavarian Climate Adaptation Strategy and the 2021 Climate Report. It emphasizes regional approaches to managing climate impacts, offers data and guidance for municipalities, and supports local adaptation initiatives through various projects and dialogue options Klimaanpassung in Bayern
Piedmont Region/Italy ARPA Piemonte (Regional Agency for Environmental Protection - Piedmont) The purpose of the portal is to provide climate indicators calculated on past data and on future scenarios through a geographic information system to allow wide use, insights at different spatial and temporal scales, and joint use with other territorial information. The indicators can be viewed and used by anyone who needs them for projects, impact estimates and climate risk assessment of a territory. The climate portal is part of the tools that the Piedmont Region intends to make available to implement the Regional Strategy on Climate Change, so that the measures it provides to contrast climate change can be translated into useful and concrete actions, guided by a consolidated and shared knowledge base. The portal can display past climate data (1981-2010), trends of these indicators in the period 1958-2018 and future climate scenarios for different time periods: 2011-2040, 2041-2070, 2071-2100. All indicators in the portal have been allocated to specific sectors, to facilitate their identification: general, tourism, agriculture, forestry, water, health and energy, and transport. It should be noted that in the “general” category there are indicators directly related to climate-forcers (temperature and precipitation). Portale sul clima in Piemonte

Future Climate and Climate Risk Warning Tools

INFO: Future climate prediction and climate risk warning tools are platforms designed to help governments, organizations, and individuals anticipate and prepare for the impacts of climate change. These tools use data from climate models and real-time weather systems to provide information on future climate scenarios and warn users about potential environmental hazards. Such tools are essential for:

  • Long-term Climate Projections: Predicting future climate trends based on different greenhouse gas emission scenarios.
  • Real-time Weather and Risk Warnings: Providing immediate notifications on natural disasters, environmental risks, and extreme weather conditions.
  • Sector-Specific Impacts: Illustrating how climate change might affect key sectors like energy, water, and health

Region / State Portal Provider Information Link
Germany Climate Service Center Germany GAGERICS (Climate Service Center Germany) has published climate outlooks for all 401 German counties, districts, and independent cities. Each report summarizes key climate indicators such as temperature, heat days, dry days, and heavy rain days over a few pages. The projections cover the 21st century, offering three scenarios: one with significant climate protection (RCP2.6), one with moderate climate protection (RCP4.5), and one without effective climate measures i.e High emissions scenario (RCP8.5) Klimaausblicke für Landkreise
Germany Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) This portal illustrates the potential impacts of climate change on Germany across various sectors, including climate, agriculture and forestry, water, energy, tourism, and health. Users can explore various parameters such as temperatures, crop yields, or wildfire risks. The portal provides data for the period 1901-2010 (observed data from the German Weather Service) and 2011-2100 (simulated data from the Impact2c project). Selected parameters are displayed as color-coded maps of Germany, with three integrated zoom levels offering more detailed views at the state or county level.

The portal includes three future climate scenarios (RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5, and RCP 8.5), based on different levels of greenhouse gas emissions for the period 2011-2100. These scenarios help visualize how varying levels of emissions might affect different regions and sectors in Germany
