Abstract
The Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project (ISIMIP) aims to provide a
quantitative and cross-sectoral synthesis of the different impacts of climate change. To
this end, a simulation protocol defines a set of common experiments that are valid across
sectors. Modelling groups around the world run their simulations following this protocol
using climate and socio-economic forcing data provided by ISIMIP. The impact model
output data is collected by the ISIMIP team at PIK and made publicly available via the
ISIMIP repository. In total, more than 100 TB of up-to-date climate impact simulations
are freely available. The data is broadly used by the international scientific community,
but also by economic and civil society actors.
The workflow of data submission and publication was considerably improved by the the
introduction of a machine-actionable protocol and the development of several interlinked
software tools for data maintenance, quality control and data publication. While the
specific implementation is tailored to ISIMIP, the general ideas should be transferable to
other projects.
