Memorandum of understanding between CNIT and Regione Toscana for a new meteoclimatic station in Pratomagno
A new meteoclimatic station in Pratomagno to strengthen the national and regional radar network. This is the goal of the memorandum of understanding signed this morning between the Regione Toscana, the Interuniversity of Telecommunications (CNIT) consortiums and LaMMA and the representatives of the territory.
Placed on the border between the Florentine and Arezzo areas, the Pratomagno was chosen because it offers the opportunity to observe the entire basin of the Arno river from above and the metropolitan area of Florence and the new station will improve the current network (which today for orographic reasons does not allow a precise analysis of events in the central part of Tuscany) and to install radiocommunication systems to transfer the acquired weather information.
