In beginning of November, Anna Maria Trofaier has started her work as remote sensing officer at SIOS. She grew up in Vienna, Austria and has a master in physics from University of Edinburgh, an interdisciplinary master in environmental technology and international affairs from Vienna University of Technology.

The new website for SIOS has been published today. This is still under development and some functionality related to the data management functionality may not be fully working initially. We are working hard to resolve these issues. Further information will be provided.

In October 2016, the Norwegian node of the SIOS Consortium, together with other Norwegian partners, sent an application to the Research Council of Norway in response to their call on new infrastructure of national significance: Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System - Infrastructure development of the Norwegian node (SIOS-InfraNor)
