CCDP: GIS-based data portal for climate change impact assessment

Since its initial launch in January 2014, CCDP has received more than 22,000 downloading requests from over 310 registered users, including academia, municipal and provincial agencies, non-government agencies, and private sectors. The climate data provided by CCDP has been widely used for different research purposes, such as agricultural impact and risk assessments, water quality and quantity forecasting, infrastructure design and operations, wind power applications, and many others. The increasing visits to the CCDP demonstrate that easy and open access to high-resolution regional climate data is essential for promoting further impact studies.
