Pan-Arctic GNSS INfrastructure for Atmospheric science: state of the art of the PAGINA project

The Italian Arctic program has recently approved the PAGINA (Pan-Arctic GNSS INfrastructure for Atmospheric Science) project. PAGINA aims to fill the existing gap of observing GNSS systems and related ICT platforms over the Arctic region by gathering the GNSS information acquired at Svalbard, Finland, Greenland, and Canada. The unprecedented effort represents the unique infrastructure capable of monitoring and investigating the northern polar atmosphere utilizing high-rate GNSS data. The novelty stands in the integration of different data sources managed by INGV (Svalbard and Greenland), UNB (Canada) and FMI (Finland), creating a bi-continental infrastructure.
