The $DAO making climate data accessible 🌦

@dClimateDAO is a project tackling an important but overlooked problem: in many developing countries, there’s a lack of reliable weather and climate data. And without it, people can’t insure their crops, prepare for droughts, or plan their planting season 🌾

In developed countries, this data exists — but it’s often closed off, expensive, and tailored for big corporations. Meanwhile, a farmer in Tanzania might have no way of knowing if it’s going to rain 🤷‍♀️

dClimate collects climate data from around the world: satellites, IoT sensors, weather stations, historical records. Then it makes that data accessible to everyone — from startups to insurance companies and government programs. It can also be used in smart contracts (e.g. for automatic drought-triggered insurance payouts) 📊

But why do they need a $DAO?

To determine which data sources can be trusted, dClimate plans to launch a $DAO where:

✅ participants will propose and approve validation scripts
✅ data quality will be evaluated transparently using open metrics
✅ decisions on updating the system and validation rules will be made through community voting

This system is still in development, but the goal is to build a decentralized infrastructure where trust in data doesn’t rely on a central authority — it’s established through an open process and community involvement 💎
