Data Policy

All data archived by the Italian Geodetic Observatory in Antarctica (IGOA) have been collected within the framework of the Italian National Antarctic Program (Programma Nazionale di Ricerche in Antartide – PNRA) supported by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR). Data collected by IGOA are freely available for scientific purposes and are distributed, whether in real time or upon delayed collection, under an open data policy. Data must be used in compliance with the national regulations on data distribution (see the 7th section of the Law n. 383/2001).

To acknowledge support or data products from the PNRA for scientific purposes, users should use a statement such as “data provided by the Italian Geodetic Observatory in Antarctica (IGOA) facility and collected thanks to support from the Italian National Programme for Antarctic Research (PNRA – Programma Nazionale di Ricerche in Antartide). Access to data through the website https://www.igoa.unimore.it/data/“.

Whenever a research paper, proposal, or any other scientific initiative is based on, or makes substantial use of IGOA GNSS and pressure tide-gauge data, please contact Alessandro Capra.
