PORTOLAN
We are a not-for-profit organization located in the heart of Geneva, Switzerland. Established in 2021, Portolan operates as an association, guided by its dedicated General Assembly, which includes both member organizations and individuals. The governance of Portolan is overseen by a committed Board, while the day-to-day operations are managed by its Directors.


OUR MISSION
Portolan dedicates itself to delivering high-quality on-site water and weather data, empowering decision-makers and communities to effectively manage water resources.
We prioritize water availability, allocation, and the management of extreme weather events, particularly those linked to climate risks.
We focus on the upstream part of information flows: our aim is to increase the availability of high quality, sufficiently dense and long-term time series of hydrological observation and climate monitoring networks.
