The astronomical observatory at Hanle in India, the highest CO2 measuring station at an altitude of 4517 m.

Since 2003, DAPNIA has been involved with LSCE (Laboratory of Climate and Environmental Sciences) in a project to make and install instruments to measure the carbon dioxide concentration in the air, known as Caribou. The project is driven by LSCE, which is running a program to gain a proper understanding of how the carbon cycle works, to try to anticipate potential changes. DAPNIA was chosen for its expertise in remote control/command and for the quality of its mechanical and electrical work. The laboratory is responsible for the design, production and installation of these instruments.
