At the headquarters in Napoli there are three main facilities: a bioelectromagnetics laboratory, an optical sensor laboratory and a cluster for remote sensing data processing.

Laboratorio1

 

The bioelectromagnetics laboratory is fully equipped with all the instruments needed to expose cell cultures to extremely low frequencies, microwaves, and pulsed electric fields under strictly controlled conditions, and to evaluate the biological effects related to genotoxic and non-genotoxic carcinogenesis.

 

camera_bianca_small

 

The optical sensor laboratory is equipped with devices and tools suitable to design, fabricate and characterize optical and optoelectronic sensors realized by means of optical fiber and planar waveguides. The available facilities include a direct  lithography  system, a small clean room, a micromilling machine and several optical laser sources and detectors.

 

cluster

 

The cluster for remote sensing data processing, designed and built at IREA, is dedicated to SAR data processing. The architecture is composed of 128 processing units (cores) and 512 GB of RAM; the totally available disk space is about 90 TB.

 

 

fieldspec

 

The Support Unit in Milano is equipped with an optical-electronic laboratory that serves as a collection center for the scientific instrumentation to be used in calibration / validation activities related to remote sensing  data  processing. The laboratory is also equipped with optical bench to be used for laboratory measurements and to check the status of instruments calibration.

 

stazione_sperimentale

In Sirmione del Garda (BS), the Experimental Station "Eugenio Zilioli" is an important support unit for all research activities focused on remote sensing of water quality and to develop the appli-cations interesting the Lake Garda region. Since 1999, the Station collaborates with the Environmental Unit of the Municipality of Sirmione (CRA) for promoting education and divulgation activities in the field of remote sensing of the environment.

laboratorio di telerilevamento

In addition to the scientific operations, IREA also shares the importance of basic research and the power of its researchers with the wider community.

The educational outreach team provides specifically crafted programs and educational resources for youth, teachers and members of the general public across Italy and beyond. Most science education initiatives are carried out in collaboration with other institutions, such as the Sirmione Experimental Station "E. Zilioli" .

Furthermoe, the Unit of Milano, in collaboration with the Research Group of CNR Science Communication and Education, carries out researches on the main aspects of science communication. Following is a list of projects of IREA in this field. 


TELEA:  Remote Sensing for Environment Education.

IREA collaborators: Giuseppe Bolzan, Mirco Boschetti, Claudia Giardino, Alba L'Astorina


CATGIS: Cartography, Remote Sensing and GIS as Technologies to be introduced in the schools for studying of the environment

IREA collaborators: Alba L'Astorina (Responsible IREA Research Unit); Giuseppe Bolzan, Mirco Boschetti, Mariano Bresciani, Claudia Giardino


RIZOMA: Alla ricerca di ancoraggi per far germogliare la responsabilità ambientale su canneti ed aree umide.

IREA collaborators: Mariano Bresciani, Claudia Giardino, Alba L'Astorina


PAS: Perception and Awareness of Science-  Project of innovative didactic promoted by CNR “Comunicazione della scienza ed educazione” in collaboration with the British Council. The project consits in introducing the scientifica debate in the schools among students, teachers, experts, stakeholders, on topics with scientific implications.

IRPPS Responsabile: Adriana Valente; IREA - Milano Section Responsible:  Alba L'Astorina

geoportal

For years IREA has hosted and delivered data produced during research activities by means of OGC geoservices for managing maps (WMS), coverages (WCS), features (WFS), and observations from sensors (SOS).

It also delivers online standard processing modules (WPS) to let users perform some elaboration on the delivered data. All data and services are described by metadata compliant with the European INSPIRE recommendations and hosted in a Catalogue Service to be searched by the public.

One of the results of this activity is the Geoportal; you can find examples of navigation criteria of a Geoportal at: http://ows.ise.cnr.it/demo/map.phtml. Information of such a Geoportal refer to spatial and geopraphical information produced within national or international IREA projects, such as snow cover of local glaciers, burned areas in Africa or water quality of Lake Garda. They give an exhaustive idea of applications IREA has produced within its research topics, in particular the Topic Geografic Information Systems.

Here are other "demo" of IREA geoportals referred to particolar areas in Italy and abroad.

webgis

Thanks to an interface based on a GoogleMap technology, it is possible to access all the data concerning the earth deformation using satellite data very easily.

In the deformation maps the green dots represent the stable zones, while the red or purple ones indicate areas that have deformed. Clicking on any colored ball, you can see a graph showing the trend of the deformation over time (remember to unblock popups!)

Click on this link to see the results of some areas where we processed the data:

IREA published last June 16th 2009 an open call for making its own list of Suppliers.

The list of Suppliers includes all suppliers considered able to provide services and goods requested by the Institute.

The list of Suppliers is divided in categories according to the kind of service or good provided. A supplier can apply for more categories if qualified.
