The IDIPOS project: is a multidisciplinary data infrastructure for weather and space weather feasible?
The Italian National Antarctic Programme (PNRA) has long supported scientific and technological activities addressed to the implementation, upgrade and maintenance of infrastructure and instruments supporting geosciences and physical sciences in the polar region. This report describes the first resu...
