Climate Tools

Hydrological Climate Adaptation Wizard

Changes in temporal and total water availability due to hydrologic and climate change require an efficient use of resources through the selection of the best adaptation options and water saving strategies. HyCAW tool supports the assessment of different adaptation strategies to cope with changes in temporal distribution and total amount of water availability. The Wizard embeds knowledge of monthly distribution of available surface- and groundwater resources at a site under present and future (climate change) scenarios

Cloud Web-Modeling Tools

Open-Source Artificial Intelligence Web Service for Effective Water Resources Forecast And Management

SmartRIVER is an innovative open-source web-cloud-based service that implements of a set of data-driven methods for river discharge forecasting for a specific catchment of interest. SmartRIVER exploit Open-source public available meteorological forecast (Copernicus CS3) and local monitoring stations (meteorological variables and discharge) feed a set of heterogeneous artificial intelligence algorithms (Support vector regression, Gaussian process, LSTM). SmartRIVER has been successfully tested and is fully operative for several catchments of interest, located in Italy, providing affordable and valuable run-off river forecast to water managers and hydropower energy producers.

Innovative Cloud-Web-Based Platform For On-Line Simulation

AWESOME provides a low-cost and user friendly DSS platform for forecast and real-time modelling, mapping, management and monitoring the air, odor and water emissions released by an IPCC industrial site. AWESOME is developed as a “Plug&Play” Cloud-based application and can be easily plugged into the available monitoring system (air, water and odor) of the industrial IPCC site. AWESOME can contribute to reduce the cost of environmental modeling studies, air emission management systems, the conflict with neighboring land uses, and administrative time needed for technical investigations and authorizations for emissions. AWESOME allows the industrial company to visualise and map the distribution of concentrations of chemicals introduced into the environment as it is in real time (diagnostic mode), and on the basis of hydrological or meteorological forecasts in the near future (prognostic mode, with a horizon of a few days).

Cloud Web-Mapping DSS for Data Management System

LandRISK is a cloud web-mapping DSS for data management, statistical analysis, near-real time hydro-geological modelling for assessing the groundwater quality and risk for human and environment related to a waste Landfill and contaminated sites. LandRISK allows the contaminated site manager and the control Authorities to obtain real-time information about the status of the water quality at the monitoring points. In addition, the numerical models of groundwater flow are able to provide updated information on the hydrodynamic conditions on the site and possibly support the manager in the interpretation of potential violations of the limits of the guard at the monitoring points. The DSS is developed in a Web-GIS using open-source software (Open Layer) and is accessible through a common web-browser without the need to install specific software, the service is available on Cloud Amazon technology can provide computing power and adequate speed for the return to the user in real time.

Web Map-Based Sdss for Costal Risk Assessment And Mitigation Planning

The European Directive on the assessment and management of flood risk reinforces a risk based approach as being fundamental to good decision making. The concept of risk however is only one component of good flood management which demands integration across sectorial interests as well as spatial and temporal domains. The primary objective of MARASMA_DSS is to provide an integrated Web_GIS DSS for mapping coastal flooding and planning mitigation measures which addresses social, economic and environmental aspects in a multicriteria scheme. The Web_tool support an assessment of the change in risk due to a range of scenarios (climate change and subsidence) and selection of the most appropriate intervention measures from an available portfolio of engineering, ecological and social measures.

A Gis Tool for Mapping Human Health Risk Related To Industrial Emissions

RISK-GIS is a GIS-DSS, developed as extension of ARCMap ESRI GIS software for mapping the fate and transport, the assessment of risk and exposure to toxic chemicals released into the environment from anthropogenic sources (continuous or accidental) or related to contaminated sites. RISK-GIS allows an experienced user to proceed in several stages involving the HHRA (Human Health Risk Assessment) quantification through the use of fate and transport models of the of pollutants in different environmental media (ASTM/RBCA Tier II models, MODFLOW, MT3D, HSSM, Vleach, ISC3, CALPUFF), characterization of the receptors exposed to and use of specific models (RBCA, HWIR, CALTOX,) for the estimation of exposure and risk. RISK-GIS is suitable for both assessments of the risk to human health posed by contamination of air, soil and groundwater at industrial sites.
