On the summit, at 2,165 metres
On the top of Cimone works the «Ottavio Vittori» Climate Observatory of CNR-ISAC. With an open horizon and far from major sources of pollution, it has been measuring greenhouse gases, aerosols and solar radiation without interruption since 1996.
It is one of the 31 global stations of the World Meteorological Organization's Global Atmosphere Watch programme: the only one in Italy and in the whole Mediterranean basin.

A network story
In February 1996 cimone.it became the first internet access provider in the Cimone area. For many people in these valleys, their first email address was a name@cimone.it, and plenty of them still use it today.
Mediasoft acquired cimone.it in 2008 and has run it ever since, mail service included. This website takes up the name to tell the story of the area where it was born.
