SACIP is a GIS tool providing real-time and future climate data for port infrastructure, enabling precise risk assessment and strategic adaptation. It enhances operational resilience with tailored insights and forecasts for proactive decision-making.
-Addressing the challenge of missing or outdated climate projections in response to the latest updates from CMIP6 climate models, which are crucial for anticipating the consequences of future climate change.
-Improving upon low-resolution climate projections that currently lack sufficient spatial and temporal detail, hindering a comprehensive understanding of climate trends.
-Rectifying incoherent climate projections that fail to accurately represent the microclimates of specific regions and their anticipated changes over time.
-Overcoming issues associated with hostile climate data formats that impede easy handling, interpretation, and visualization for non-specialized end users.
-Establishing a centralized platform that consolidates detailed climate and weather information, offering specific data tailored to the end user's working field, such as infrastructure impact variables and risk indicators.
-Introducing a tool to support stakeholders and policymakers in decision-making related to the design and implementation of adaptation measures, along with a mechanism for testing, monitoring, and validating these measures.
-Providing a visual representation of the projected impact of climate change on port activities and infrastructure by analyzing key extreme indicators and existing assessments of economic losses and vulnerabilities.
- Addressing Heavy precipitation / pluvial floods, Heatwaves, Storm/High winds speeds

The SACIP tool provides Valencian ports with a user-friendly, ready-to-use monitoring platform integrating diverse climate data layers and indicators based on stakeholder requirements. It offers current weather analysis, short-term forecasts, seasonal forecasts, and high-resolution future climate projections. The platform supports additional information layers for enhanced visualization and allows for future functionality extensions. Local workshops will co-design specific variables for infrastructure and port activities, engaging stakeholders and aiding in the design of adaptation measures while validating economic and social impacts. By delivering detailed climate data and updated forecasts, SACIP improves decision-making and addresses key challenges faced by the Port of Valencia.
The basis of the current tool was developed through the CRISI-ADAPT II project, an R&D project financed by EIT Climate-KIC in which Meteogrid participated as platform developer. In CRISI-ADAPT II both Meteogrid and Fundación Valenciaport had the opportunity to collaborate and start working to set the basis for SACIP tool, already tailored to their needs.
To ensure a good result in the SACIP tool and of all of the input climate data that will be displayed, some requirements are needed, and under some scenarios, the quality of the results could be compromised.
A lack of good quality or long enough weather and sea data registers, or a poor weather observation density in the area could imply difficulties in the simulation of local microclimates or sea behaviour. There are, however, already tested alternatives with excellent results if these scenarios appear, such as the use of ERA5-Land reanalysis and other statistical applications to cover the input weather and sea needs.
Also, in order to generate and promote the results of SACIP, good communication and engagement of local authorities and stakeholders are required, and a loss or reduction in the frequency of exchanges (missing or inaccurate responses, low participation in workshops…) could worsen the enrichment of tool contents. From a very early stage, participatory meetings will be developed together with stakeholders and ARSINOE partners. These contacts will work to go deep into the development, mainly to identify all possible port risks, and also establish milestones and come up with the best solutions to be adopted in each case.

The main components of the system have been tested separately, and an initial integration exercise has been conducted.
