Explore the solutions

iClimateAction is structured around five work packages. They focus on key aspects of the climate data value chain – from mapping existing efforts to delivering real-world solutions. Together, they aim to ensure climate data is consistent, accessible and actionable by all who need it.

WP1. Mapping

Connecting efforts across WMO, GCOS and GEO

This work package maps the strategies, governance and programmes of the three partner organizations. It identifies gaps, overlaps and opportunities to strengthen coordination in support of global climate goals.

WP2. Assessing

Strengthening surface-based and space-based observation systems

By reviewing Earth observation networks and data centres, WP2 evaluates how Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) are being monitored. It identifies barriers and offers practical solutions to improve data quality, availability and accessibility.

WP3. Demonstrating

Putting climate data to work for cities and ecosystems

Through pilot projects on urban heat and ecosystem resilience, WP3 shows how harmonized climate data can support early warning systems, risk assessments and nature-based solutions – translating science into services that protect people and nature.

WP4. Exploiting

Empowering users with data-driven climate services

WP4 focuses on transforming climate data into actionable tools and guidance. It explores innovations such as artificial intelligence to enhance the usability and integration of Earth observation data, helping decision-makers take smarter climate action.

WP5. Engaging

Strengthening long-term coordination

This work package delivers a shared strategy for sustained collaboration between WMO, GCOS and GEO. It builds on the insights of earlier work packages to propose a roadmap for joint planning, governance and delivery of global climate services.
