Advancing high-resolution environmental modeling and digital intelligence to support climate-resilient infrastructure, sustainable urban design, and long-term planning across NEOM’s next-generation developments. This work enables the integration of environmental data and predictive systems into planning and operations, supporting informed decision-making under evolving climate conditions.
NEOM’s coastal and urban environments are shaped by extreme weather dynamics, marine variability, and evolving climate risks. Delivering infrastructure at this scale requires environmental datasets that are scientifically robust, spatially refined,
and operationally reliable.
To address these challenges, we develop advanced regional climate and ocean models, ultra-high-resolution
datasets, forecasting systems, and integrated digital platforms. These capabilities provide scenario-based environmental intelligence to guide sustainable planning, inform engineering design, and support resilient urban development under future
climate conditions.
Tailored environmental datasets and urban-scale forecasting systems provide NEOM with actionable environmental intelligence for construction, operational management, and long-term master planning. High-resolution atmospheric and marine modeling captures
coastal circulation, heat exposure, wind fields, and hydrological processes at the city scale, while integrated decision-support platforms translate these outputs into practical guidance, enabling planners, engineers, and operators to act with
confidence under evolving environmental conditions.
Generating reliable, ultra-high-resolution datasets at the urban scale requires capturing complex atmosphere–ocean interactions and rapidly evolving coastal processes, while addressing gaps in long-term observations to ensure model validation and scientific integrity. Equally critical is delivering data and forecasts in near real time, enabling alignment with construction timelines and supporting dynamic, informed decision-making across NEOM’s expanding city-scale systems.
