Providing climate modelling consultancy for Smart Resilience

UK-based start-up, Smart Resilience, is developing a portal that uses extensive historic datasets and forecasting models to map current and future risks for a variety of climate change scenarios. This facilitates the development of informed short and long-term business continuity strategies to ensure commercial users of the data are better prepared for climate risks.

Recognising the primacy of environmental data and the constant refinement of climate model outputs, Smart Resilience contracted Environmental Insight Partners to provide hands-on technical consultancy to provide the team with state-of-the-art modelling advice across a range of climatic hazards.

Our team provided hands-on advice and support delivered via a combination of literature reviews and worked examples using Python notebooks. We covered data sources suitable for quantifying risks associated with high winds, floods and droughts. For more information on the project outputs, check out the case study here
