WIZ – WaterIZe* spatial planning: encompass future drinkwater management conditions to adapt to climate change
WIZ is the innovative demonstration project that paves the road to include future drinkwater availability in today's spatial planning, and life planning.
WIZ allows Municipalities, Provinces and all those involved in spatial planning processes to access web-based information about demand and supply projections linking new settling hypotheses, climate change scenarios, infrastructure costs on the background of existing geographic local information systems.
Through WIZ, citizens can find on-line information on present and future drinkwater supply conditions, for instance to decide if a location is a convenient venue to live: WIZ is linked to Geografic Information Systems.
Drinking water supply service utilities (including the WIZ Coordinator Beneficiry Acque S.p.A.) are pivotal key actors, too, as they operate at the crossroad between the interests to protect the resource, to supply enough good-quality drinking water, to run services in an economically viable way, to respond to socio-economic development needs: thanks to WIZ, they improve their decisions quality and validity.
Communities of practitioners and professionals can use, rework and improve WIZ services, implemented following open-source licensing schemes.
Finally, the research and technology development community involved by the WIZ project includes sectoral specialists bridging the gap between applied research and early implementation of advanced solutions.
Project partners are: Acque Spa (Pisa), Coordinating Beneficiary; Autorità di Bacino del Fiume Arno (Florence), Acque Ingegneria Srl (Pisa), Fundación Instituto Tecnológico de Galicia (A Coruña, Spain).
The total budget amounts to € 1,896,540; the LIFE+ Community contribution amounts to € 942,370.
WIZ will last 36 months (01/09/2010 - 30/08/2013).
