Data policy

Acknowledgement

Any publication or presentation which makes non-trivial use of KAIRA data must also include the following acknowledgement:

KAIRA was funded by the University of Oulu and the FP7 European Regional Development Fund and is operated by Sodankylä Geophysical Observatory.


Applying for time or data

With a few restrictions, it is possible to apply for time on the KAIRA facility or request KAIRA data from other programmes. Any scientists wishing to do so should contact the KAIRA PI. Currently all projects making non-trivial use of KAIRA data are required to have an SGO-affiliated person as co-author on published papers unless agreed otherwise.


Support

KAIRA staff are able to provide limited support for observations. Please arrange this with plenty of time to ensure that the appropriate arrangements can be made. Please note that KAIRA staff are unable to provide support for the EISCAT facilities.

Data archive

Data is typically only kept on the system for up-to-six moths. Scientists are responsible for their own data recovery and archiving. For details on this, or about additional storage options, please contact the KAIRA PI before commencing observations.

Publication Archive

Many universities and university instruments (incl. KAIRA) now operate an open-publication policy. Any publication made using KAIRA data must be provided (either in final, or pre-proof) format for storage on the server. Please send these to the KAIRA Data Sheet – technical details and parameters for the KAIRA system.
