POC21 - Harnessing the power of Crowdsourcing for Mountain Monitoring<\/h3>\n

Addressing high-mountain challenges requires the provision of actionable information on Alpine changes. Swiss national monitoring programmes for glaciers and permafrost, GLAMOS and PERMOS, play a fundamental role in the provision of this information, however often lack sufficient real-time in-situ information to develop timely monitoring products.
\nThe POC21 project is about exploring the potential of modern observation methods to fill this information gap, and in particular evaluating the power of crowdsourcing for long-term mountain monitoring.
\nObservation campaigns will soon be organised on MountaiNow to collect targeted crowdsourced observations, so stay tuned... You can make a difference to the Alps!
\nKey partners include GLAMOS<\/a>, PERMOS<\/a>, Exolabs<\/a>, and Planetek<\/a>. The POC21 project is co-financed by MeteoSwiss in the framework of GCOS Switzerland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
