RAEON Equipment Sharing
The Real-Time Aquatic Ecosystem Observation Network provides instrument loans to Canadian academics and partners. If interested, please ‘request’ an item and fill out the equipment loan form. For non-Canadian academics, please contact us to discuss opportunities. Note: RAEON has a set of criteria for loaning out instruments. Equipment loans include a small fee to ensure all equipment is serviced and calibrated, so that lost or damaged equipment can be replaced, and general operating costs of the Network can be maintained. Please see our Equipment Fee Business Model for more details. There is also an agreement to archive data through the Great Lakes Data Portal.
