Seismic monitoring technology at the Madeira Island, Portugal, allows a submarine optic cable to act as a sensor for seismic activity. This improves the chances of predicting earthquakes and tsunamis.
Synchrotron sheds light on ancient Middle East
The technology reveals evidence for human heavy metal exposure, as well as preservation status of bone, dental tissue, and hair at micrometre scales.
URAN solves cloud services issues caused by the increased demand for virtual machines during the war
Numerous universities were able to take advantage of the free cloud services offered by URAN, but the increased demand led to an unforeseen crisis caused by disk storage overload in the NREN’s data centre.

How astronomers are making the universe feel smaller
While astronomers tackle the largest research area possible – the entire universe beyond the Earth’s atmosphere – just a few telescopes around the world provide much of the data they study to uncover the secrets of the universe’s celestial objects.
Cloud assistance for Maltese COVID-19 study
Funding to access cloud services is enabling researchers at the University of Malta to use machine learning for investigating how COVID-19 restrictions influence our wellbeing.
Safe Harbour for Migrating Fish and Cleaner Sustainable Energy
Tracking the migratory patterns of fish required connecting a vast number of sensors and cameras and the capacity to flawlessly transfer terabytes of recorded images and signals.
KNMI shares weather data with fellow institutes via EUMETSAT
Weather satellites provide raw data for weather and climate models. EUMETSAT collects this raw data and distributes the processed data to weather institutes in its member countries, such as the Dutch KNMI. The institutes themselves contribute to the processing of the data. How does this work, how are the data distributed, and what is SURF's role?
