Overview

ClimateData.ca provides high-resolution climate data to support Canada's climate adaptation planning and help decision makers build a more resilient Canada. The goal of this portal is to support decision makers across a broad spectrum of sectors and locations by providing the most up to date climate data in easy to use formats and visualizations.

It enables Canadians to access, visualize, and analyze climate data, and provides related information and tools to support adaptation planning and decision-making. The collaborative approach to providing climate services to Canadians aims to foster the development of a network of national and regional climate services providers which will support the ongoing provision of specialized information tailored to specific industry sectors.

Users can search for data by:

1. Location
2. Variable (i.e., temperature, precipitation)
3. Sector (i.e., transportation, agriculture, health, and buildings) and then analyze and download relevant data

This climate data portal is produced collaboratively by the country’s leading climate organizations and supported, in part, by the Government of Canada. It is supported by the Canadian Centre for Climate Services (CCCS) of Environment and Climate Change Canada as part of its efforts to provide Canadians with easy access to climate related data and to help increase their resilience to climate change.
