The World Data Center for Climate ( WDCC ) is a repository hosted by the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) in Hamburg, Germany. It provides access to and offers long-term archiving for data relevant for climate and Earth System research in a highly standardized manner following the FAIR principles. WDCC is an accredited regular member of the World Data System (WDS) since 2003 and certified as a Trustworthy Data Repository by CoreTrustSeal ( https://www.coretrustseal.org ).
WDCC services are aimed at both scientists who produce data (e.g. long-term archiving to fulfill the guidelines of good scientific practice) and those who re-use published data for new research. In Earth System Sciences often a big quantity of data is produced and needed for climate research. This is especially true for climate model output. To enable scientists to re-use data also across
domains, it is essential that data is archived including rich metadata. Before data is published in WDCC, it undergoes multiple checks and curation. Recently WDCC has established its own standard for NetCDF file headers, so that only data fulfilling this standard are accepted for publication.
We will be available at the booth to provide advice on data preparation, submission, publication -

Discover the full spectrum of data science support and expertise at the Helmholtz booth , where five Helmholtz-wide platforms showcase their combined strength to accelerate research—particularly in the Earth and Environment field. These platforms—Helmholtz AI, Helmholtz Information and Data Science Academy (HIDA), Helmholtz Federated IT Services (HIFIS), Helmholtz Imaging and Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC)—operate across the entire Helmholtz Association to advance artificial intelligence, imaging, metadata, research software and training . Our booth serves as a one-stop hub for information and data science exchange and support.
What We Offer:
-
Helmholtz AI
offers tailored consulting, computing resources, and funding opportunities to democratise and accelerate the application of artificial intelligence in science - supporting a wide range of use cases, from foundation models to domain-specific solutions.
-
HIDA
offers a rich portfolio of training, networking, and funding opportunities, fostering the next generation of data scientists and supporting upskilling across all career stages.
-
HIFIS
provides and brokers federated cloud services hosted across Helmholtz centers and delivers training and support on using those services, as well as on Research Software Engineering.
-
Helmholtz Imaging
provides access to cutting-edge imaging infrastructure, funding opportunities, and expert consulting - enabling researchers to unlock new insights from …

NFDI4Earth is part of the
National Research Data Infrastructure
(NFDI), and specifically aims to address the needs of the Earth System Science community.
The ambition of the NFDI4Earth is to further identify the demands for digital changes in the German Earth System Science community, to establish a set of common principles, rules and standards for research data management in Earth System Science, and to provide tools and mechanisms for data integration and analysis in a structured community consultation process. NFDI4Earth will provide simple, efficient, open, and – whenever possible – unrestricted access to all relevant Earth system data, scientific data management and data analysis services. It will also provide learning and training materials through a learning community portal and open community resources.
NFDI4Earth is a community-driven process - its network comprises of 65 partnering institutions from Universities, Research Organisations, Infrastructure Providers, Governmental Institutions as well as Scientific Associations and Networks.
Visit us at our booth to meet our team and to get more information about this exciting project!
