Calibration laboratories are also being put up for access.
This is a unique opportunity for scientists and engineers to avail of high-quality, interlinked instrumented infrastructures operating in coastal and shelf-sea areas for carrying out research and/or testing activities.

Visitors and projects will be selected on the basis of the quality and novelty of the proposed activities.
