PROJECT NAME: ADB TA-8179 CAM: Mainstreaming Climate Resilience into Development Planning
About the project
The Cambodia Climate Change Toolbox is an open-source information portal that provides projections and data for climate parameters in Cambodia at the country, provincial, district, and local levels. The toolbox has been developed to support the decision-making process of the Government of Cambodia.
The toolbox is built on R Shiny to allow for easy customization and updating. The four main toolbox components, which can be selected on the navigation bar at the top of the page, are:
1. Interactive map: the interactive map is the primary component of the tool, allowing users to query climate data in a variety of ways including by province, point location, or area location. Users can define the climate condition they are interested in by selecting the desired climate scenarios, climate parameter, and season. The interactive map also provides information on projected extreme weather events.
2. Country climate profile: a dual-map view showing projected precipitation and maximum temperature for the 2050s for the country. This component also includes a table providing current and projected changes in temperature and rainfall that can be sorted by province. Users can select the climate condition (based on GCM) and season.
3. Province climate profile: a map showing projected precipitation and maximum temperature in 2050s for the selected province. This component also includes a table providing projected changes in temperature and rainfall that can be sorted by district. Users can select the climate condition (based on GCM) and season.
4. About: reference information on the data sources used and relevant terminology necessary to understand and use the toolbox.
The Manual of Cabodia Climate Toolbox (English language) can be founded here.
