Integration of Climate Data in the SAVi Irrigation Model
C3S_428h_IISD-EU: Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi): Demonstrating the Business Case for Climate-Resilient and Sustainable Infrastructure
This report outlines the integration of authoritative Copernicus Climate Data from the Climate Data Store (CDS) into a Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi) Irrigation model. It describes how several climate indicators obtained from the CDS were integrated into the SAVi Irrigation model and how its analysis has improved as a result. In light of this integration, IISD can generate sophisticated SAVi-derived analyses on the costs of climate-related risks and climate-related externalities.
This document presents:
- A summary of the literature review on the impact of climate on irrigation infrastructure, including equations that link climate variables to the economic performance of irrigation projects.
- How the above information was used to select relevant indicators from the Copernicus database.
- How outputs of the CDS datasets are integrated into the SAVi System Dynamics (SD) Irrigation model.
