The Rules of the Road

'These data are the intellectual property of the EISCAT Scientific Association. Except where clearly noted as Commom Programme (CP), use of these data is restricted to the original experimenter (as noted in the description file available through the schedule system at www.eiscat.se/schedule/schedule.cgi) for one year from the date of the experiment. Otherwise, these data may be used freely for the purpose of illustration for teaching and for non-commercial scientific research, provided that the source is acknowledged and to the extent justified by the non-commercial purpose to be achieved. Substantial use of these data should be discussed at an early stage with knowledgeable scientists within the EISCAT Scientific Association in order to clarify matters of use, calibration and potential co-authorship. Ingemar Haggstrom (Ingemar.Haggstrom@eiscat.com) can provide advice on suitable contacts. Any further distribution of these data, including installation in any database, must be accompanied by this statement and subject to the same conditions of use. '
