The already installed infrastructure has been entered into the SIOS Observation Facility Catalog (OFC). This catalogue has been developed to provide an overview of the observation facilities which collect SIOS data. The purpose of the catalogue is to make better use of the existing research infrastructure by facilitating the search for given parameters and their location. In this way, duplication can be avoided, and new measurements can be co-located with existing ones. The catalogue may also be used to gain a simple overview of collected parameters and how to access the data.

Data sharing
All the data are or will be available in the SIOS Data Portal via Met.NO and Polish Polar DataBase (which is currently undergoing modernisation as part of the HarSval project activity). Met.NO and Polish Polar DataBase are fully integrated with the SIOS Data Portal. As soon as the metadata between servers is updated, the data will be available via the SIOS Data Portal. Part of the data was downloaded from the instruments during fieldwork in August and September 2024. Currently, the data is undergoing quality control and metadata is being prepared to make the data available in repositories.
- AWS:
Data and metadata from installed AWS stations are already available through MET.NO data base:
(work in progress)
and on the servers:
(work in progress) -
GNSS-IR Monitoring Station:
http://www.grat.gik.pw.edu.pl/CRIOS/ (login: CRIOS, password: CRIOS).
Data will also be made available in an open repository at the beginning of 2025 (Polish Polar DataBase).

SPICE:
Data from SPICE sensors that have iridium transmission are available at the following links:
and at the MET.NO data base:
(work in progress)
Data from SPICE sensors that have not iridium transmission are available at the server:
(work in progress)
After the modernization of the Polish Polar DataBase, the data will be accessible through the open repository (first quarter of 2025). -

Eddy Covariance System:
The final installation of the Eddy Covariance Systems has been finalized in September 2024. All the data will be available in the SIOS Data Portal via Met.NO and Polish Polar DataBase (which is currently undergoing modernisation as part of the HarSval project activity) as soon as the appropriate data transfer protocols are prepared. Work is in progress.
