Data Search and Discovery Service for the Climate Data Store

Descriptions

ECMWF, as the Entrusted Entity for the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), invites Tenders to develop an advanced LLM-based search and discovery service, to enhance user access to climate and environmental data from the C3S Climate Data Store (CDS). The service will enable natural language querying, intelligent data summarisation, and personalised recommendations to support a broader and more diverse user base, including non-experts. It will integrate with existing systems like the ECMWF Knowledge Duck and explore the use of generative AI for automated quality assessments of datasets. The successful Tenderer shall be responsible for the provision of an intuitive, intelligent interface that improves data discoverability, trust, and usability for climate services.

ECMWF intends to award a single Framework Agreement for a period of maximum 30 months, which shall be implemented via a single Service Contract expected to commence in Q1 2026.
