Pollution, human activity, data from sensors, topography, photogrammetry, biospeleology: a lot of data is collected on the underground environment. It's time to provide them with a place to save them and make them accessible to the entire community. This is what we are proposing as our objective for 2024. For this we need your help.

Your help will become our common good
