OCEANIDS stands for creating tools and applications driven by users. These tools focus on Climate-Informed Maritime Spatial Planning and integrated seascape management, all aiming to contribute to a resilient and inclusive Blue Economy.
The overall project objective is to develop the tools and applications that enable a more resilient and inclusive society in coastal regions via better-informed and integrated seascape management.
The central concept is to collect, harmonize, and curate existing climate data services, making data accessible, reusable, and interoperable for developing local adaptation strategies.
Improve access to existing data and services via applications related to CC-induced impacts on the coastal region
Create beyond State-of-the-Art re-usable information tools tailored to users’ needs
Novel climate services, fully integrated in operational EU infrastructure, to be further used by the Mission
Providing a data-exchange framework that will allow efficient flow and validation of data from both local and central sources
Demonstrate the OCEANIDS tools and application by 12 end users in 7 EU different regions, ensuring vulnerable and challenged regions are represented
Identify all key stakeholders related to the final tools and applications of OCEANIDS
Perform an in-depth gap analysis in the root causes of poor data consumption and applications uptake by regional stakeholders
Social innovation – Develop a citizen engagement framework allowing multi participatory and co-creation towards a more inclusive society
Identify the use of New Earth observation (EO) data services requirements & specifications
Climatic models, forecasting & Meteorological models curation & quantitative environmental impact assessment in coastal regions
Develop a platform for assessing the impacts and risks of climate change on key community systems, as highlighted in the Mission Implementation Plan, including multi-hazard assessment
Develop an integrated EO and spatial data platform (single-access window) for CC-related data and services for regional stakeholders
Develop a DSS towards enabling CI-MSP in coastal regions
Deploy the OCEANIDS tools, modules, applications, and platforms on operational infrastructure in a modular, re-usable and user-friendly way
Ensure project results replication in other regions, dissemination of result to a wide audience and sustainability of the approach in real-life conditions
Liaising with other EU projects & initiatives & lessons learned
