Eiscat 3D

EISCAT_3D is a project led by EISCAT Scientific Association.
EISCAT_3D is a three-dimensional imaging radar to be located in the northernmost parts of Europe. It will be making continuous measurements of the geospace environment and its coupling to the Earth's atmosphere from its location in the auroral zone at the southern edge of the northern polar vortex. 
The EISCAT_3D Preparatory Phase has started
The four year long Preparatory Phase of EISCAT_3D started on 1 October 2010. This is the phase of the project where the technical, legal and financial aspects of the are finalised so that the construction of the EISCAT_3D radar system can begin.
