Optical Infrared Co-ordination Network for Astronomy (OPTICON)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Optical-infrared astronomy in Europe is in a state of transition and opportunity, with the goal of a viable structured European scale community in sight. A strong astronomical community requires access to state of the art infrastructures (telescopes), equipped with the best possible instrumentation, and with that access being open to all on a basis of competitive excellence. Further, the community ...

European Plate Observing System (EPOS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
To understand the complex Earth System requires an integrated observational strategy and infrastructure to record key diagnostic features of its dynamics. Accordingly, this infrastructure must include geographically distributed and multidisciplinary monitoring instruments and observations. The European Plate Observing System (EPOS) will meet this challenge. The proposed RI (EPOS) will create a sin ...
