Risk Sciences International, the developers of CCHIP, have provided highly advanced, leading-edge climate analyses for infrastructure and climate vulnerability assessment using Engineers Canada PIEVC Protocol for the past several years. Having this kind of analysis within an analytical system like CCHIP will enable engineers to more readily incorporate current and future climate parameters for resilient infrastructure design, operations and maintenance.
