CLIMTAG

Climate Information Service and Tool for Agriculture

CLIMTAG is a cloud-based, open-access climate information platform that supports the agricultural sector around the world in adapting to climate change and becoming more climate resilient.

Our co-designed and user-validated dashboard gives meteorological service providers, agricultural researchers, extension officers and public policymakers, an objective and more complete view on past and future climate scenarios and potential impacts of climate in agricultural activities.
