Copernicus Climate
Change Service
Vision C3S
• To be an authoritative source of climate
information for Europe
• Brings a unique pan-European dimension
to Climate Services
• Build upon, complement and add value
to current capabilities in Europe
• Provide a ‘one-stop-shop’ access to quality
assured climate information, tools and good
practices
• Facilitate uptake and growth of the climate service
market
2
• Cross-cutting role and exploit synergies
with other Copernicus services
Copernicus Climate
Change Service
Questions addressed in the Service
• How is climate changing?
• Earth observations
• Reanalyses
•
Will climate change
continue/accelerate?
• Predictions
• Projections
•
What are the societal impacts?
• Climate indicators
• Sectoral information
Focus: Global and Europe - User driven
Data policy: Free and Open
Operational Service based on science but not a
scientific programme

Sectoral
Information
System
Evaluation and
Quality Control
• ECVs past, present and
• Monitors quality of C3S
products and services
• Ensures C3S delivers stateof-the-art climate
information to end-users
• Identifies gaps in service
provision
• Bridges Copernicus with
the research agenda in
Europe (e.g. H2020,
national research projects)
future
• Observed, reanalysed
and simulated
• Derived climate
indicators
• Tools to support
adaptation and
mitigation at global
and European level

Outreach and
Dissemination
• Web content
• Public outreach
• Coordination with
national outreach
• Liaison with public
authorities
• Conferences, seminars
• Training and education

CDS architecture
 The Climate Data Store will be at the heart of the C3S infrastructure and will
provide information about past, present and future climate in terms of Essential
Climate Variables and derived climate indicators.
 The CDS will be designed as a distributed system, providing improved access to
existing datasets through a unified web interface, compliant with INSPIRE.
 The CDS will contain observations, global and regional climate reanalyses,
global and regional climate projections and seasonal forecasts.
 The CDS will also provide an comprehensive set of software tools (toolbox) that
will allow the users to develop applications that will make use of the content of the
CDS.
 This service will accommodate the needs of the highly diverse set of users that
will include policy makers, experts as well as scientists.

Commonalities between the projects
Use input data from the Climate Data Store
- observations, ECVs, reanalyses, seasonal forecasts, climate projections
- additional datasets (from other services, socio-economic data, etc.)
Stakeholders engagement:
- user workshops organised at very early stage (<T+6)
Demonstrators:
- Most use cases demonstrated between (T+12 and T+18)
Wide users trials and feedback

Upcoming opportunities on C3S SIS:
Invitation To Tender to be launched in Q2 of 2017 for multiple contracts on
“SIS - Extension to other sectors” (ca. 31 MEUR)
Content of the ITT will take into account:
• Lessons learned from the current Proof of Concept SIS contracts
• Feedback from the Evaluation and Quality Control component on the
SIS
• Feedback as provided during the SIS User Workshop to be
organised on 17-19 October (tentative dates, details will follow on
