QA for Climate Asset Risk Analysis Tool

Input datasets

The CLARAT application includes Hazard Indicator datasets derived from climate projections and Land Surface Temperature data from Earth Observation.


Undergone data quality review

Traceability of derived data to input and ancillary datasets

Hazard indicator datasets have been derived from CMIP6 data and UK Climate Projection (UKCP18) data inputs.

Derived results

Clearly described characteristics of outputs (temporal extent, resolution)

Details of the temporal extent and resolution are included in the application user interface.

Accessible documentation

Data generation algorithm description

The algorithms used to produce the hazard indicator datasets use the OS Climate methodology described at https://physrisk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html with the methodology for specific indicators being described in detail in the application user interface.


User guide

A user guide for the application with further details is available at https://sparkgeo.github.io/uk_eodatahub/
