SPEKTR Z

SPEKTR Z, Sensor Polygon for Electromagnetism, Communication, Technology, Research, and Sensing is a hybrid mobile laboratory. It began operating in July 2022 in the Karst region during the largest wildfire in Slovenia’s recent history. It continued its activities within the ISOLABS project in the Soča River basin in August 2022, where it will remain active at least until 2026.

The laboratory is hybrid in nature, consisting of modules and equipment for remote sensing, reception, and processing systems for sensor data. A special section of the laboratory is dedicated to public presentations of its operations and collaboration with tactical media workers, artists, the creative and high-tech industries, and research institutions.

The laboratory will be physically present in the Soča River basin starting in 2024, and it is also planned to be presented to the public at the central ECoC location in Nova Gorica.
