Digital Climate Maps of Tasmania (Based on Climate Futures For Tasmania)

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

A collection of high-resolution climate grid surfaces for land areas in Tasmania based on Climate Futures For Tasmania projection modelling. There are 152 climate products available that delineate temperature and rainfall parameters specific to crop growing requirements that form part of the enterprise suitability mapping program (refer here: https://dpipwe.tas.gov.au/agriculture/investing-in-irrigation/enterprise-suitability-toolkit/enterprise-suitability-maps). Broadly speaking these products include climate risk parameters including frost risk, heat risk and extreme rainfall risk as well as crop related indices including growing degree days and chill hours. Furthermore, mean monthly climate variables including mean monthly maximum/minimum air temperature and rainfall products are also produced. Refer here for dataset inventory: https://nrmdatalibrary.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/FactSheets/WfW/ListMapUserNotes/Inventory_DCM_Tas.pdf Climate Futures Tasmania (CFT) projections were incorporated into the modelling framework to simulate projected climate (according to the RCP 8.5 scenario) for years 2030 and 2050. These projections were downscaled, and bias corrected to a spatial grid resolution of 30m. Also, note that these outputs relate to the baseline climate maps defined here: https://www.thelist.tas.gov.au/app/content/data/geo-meta-data-record?detailRecordUID=ba62f124-5906-4471-a01c-9b57b6142055 All products can be accessed via Web Map Service: https://spatial.dpipwe.tas.gov.au/naturalassets/Climate/wms Or viewed in the following Web Map application: https://arcg.is/vaHDG
