The SIOS Data Management Service integrates information from SIOS partner data repositories into a unified virtual data centre, the SIOS Data Access Portal, allowing users to search for and access data regardless of where they are archived. Providers and users have to commit to the SIOS data policy. The current focus is on discovery through standardised metadata, and retrieval, visualisation & transformation of data. Ultimately, the Data Management Service works towards integration of datasets which requires a high level of interoperability at the data level. If you use data retrieved through this portal, please acknowledge our funding source: Research Council of Norway, project number 291644, Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System – Knowledge Centre, operational phase.
Always remember to cite data when used!
Citation information is provided in the metadata for many datasets.
The facility in Adventdalen can determine atmospheric parameters such as winds and turbulence from a few km altitude to over 100km and at a wide variety of spatial and temporal resolutions (which parameters are derived depends on altitude of the measurement).
The Sousy Svalbard Radar (SSR), is a so-called "mesosphere-stratosphere-troposphere" (MST) radar, operates at 53.5 MHz and is located in Adventdalen approximately 10km SW of Longyearbyen. The system is of the phased array type and as such has a low visual impact on the environment. Typical average power is only 200W - and thus a negligible radiation hazard (think of looking at 2 or 3 lightbulbs from several kilometers away). The MST radar is complemented with a meteor detection system extending the set of parameters.
Digital geological map of Svalbard at the scale of 1:250000.
Subdivision of geology is according to stratigraphic group, subgroup or formation, depending on which is best applicable to the given scale. Where no formations are defined in parts of the geological basement, lithological units are defined instead.
Svalbardreinen anses å være forholdsvis stasjonær, og opptrer i mer eller mindre isolerte delbestander på Svalbard. I sin forvaltning finner Sysselmannen det i dag hensiktsmessig å dele Svalbard inn i 13 slike enheter, som vil være gjenstand for endring når ny kunnskap tilsier det.
Datasettet viser områder med begrensninger på jakt utover dei generelle reglane i Svalbardmiljølova på Svalbard.
Rundt Longyearbyen er forskrift om skyteforbud på høring i 2012. Planlagt utvidelse av skyteforbudssonendenne sonen. Følgjande forskrifter regulerer forbudsområder for jakt på Svalbard:
- Skyteforbudssone rundt Longyearbyen
- Alt vilt freda (=jaktforbud) i naturreservat på østsvalbard og i fuglereservat
- Rypejakt tillatt etter søknad i Sør-Spitsbergen, Forlandet og Nordvest-Spitsbergen nasjonalparker
- Bjørnøya naturreservat
- Hopen naturreservat
- Moffen naturreservat
- Midterhuken
Reinsjakt og fangst av fjellrev er kun tillatt i nærmere bestemte områder.
The Climate Change Tower Integrated Project (CCT-IP) represents the guide lines of the italian research in the arctic and aims to study the interaction between all the components of the climate system in the Arctic. The Amundsen-Nobile Climate Change Tower (CCT) is the key infrastructure of the project, and provides continuous acquisition of the atmospheric parameters at different heights as well as at the interface between the surface and the atmosphere.
The sensor used to measure the radiation budget and energy fluxes is a CNR1 net radiometer at 33 m of height and a CM11 and a CG4 at 25 m to measure the upwelling radiation from the surface.

Seismic data recorded by a permanent seismological station located in Spitsbergen. Seismic records can be used for seismological and cryoseismological studies, data is gathered continuously and access is open.
The automated nivological station was installed in November 2020 in a flat area over the tundra about 80 meters far from the Gruvebadet Atmospheric Laboratory and nearby a snow sampling site from where weekly snow samples are collected for chemical analysis. Sensors have been calibrated by their companies before installation and are connected to a datalogger for continuous acquisition. For all the parameters, data are logged with 10-minute time resolution and then averaged over 1 hour.
