Citizen science partners & facilitators

There are different types of ISOSCAN’ers – professional scientists and people of all ages and backgrounds. What unites us is a shared contribution to improving rain, snow and flood forecasts.

Several partners – local businesses and organisations – help us to collect samples by enabling us to distribute and collect ISOSCAN’er. Below, we present our ISOSCAN Citizen Science Partners.
