Summary
The CLIME service is useful for different types of users such as: consultancy companies, engineers, academic researchers, scientists, public administrators. Our service it is able to provide different climate products to different types of end-users. In the case of not climate data experts, our goal is to develop a kind of „controlled application“ avoiding an incorrect use of climate data and enlarging the community of users, able to carry out climate analysis autonomously on areas and variables of interest. While, in the case of climate data experts, our goal is to integrate their specific analysis within our climate service, also providing a more advanced and complete analysis. Users with programming skills can furtherly tailor the CLIME results for their analysis while for users that don’t have advanced programming skills, the results of climate analysis will be available as temporal or statistical plots.
Result description
CLIME is a climate service developed by Regional Models and geo-Hydrological Impacts Division (REMHI) of CMCC Foundation, to provide climate data and solutions to different types of users with different backgrounds and needs. CLIME is able to take care of the whole information production chain: from the climate data collection/storage since processing of climate data according to user needs. The processing of climate data includes bias correction and climate analyses using the high resolution climate projections. CLIME is also able to provide climate data in support of different impact studies (e.g. floods, drought, landslides, heat waves, wind storm). The functionalities are continuously updated in agreement with the standard of scientific community, CMCC finding and users requirements. Currently CMCC has a dedicated email (clime@cmcc.it) and a webpage (www.dataclime.com).

R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
Currently, the user can explore the demo web platform through the site www.dataclime.com requesting credentials. The CLIME service will become commercial by the end of the project. Then the user can create a new task by accessing an area for the selection of several parameters, necessary to define a new climate analysis.
