The Institute of Methodologies for Environmental Analysis (IMAA) is part of the Department of Earth and Environment of the National Council of Research (CNR), and is currently the only CNR Institute having its headquarters in the Basilicata Region (CNR Research Area of Potenza and the detached Centre of Marsico Nuovo in Val d’Agri).
Right from the start the IMAA research activity has been devoted to the development and the integration of satellite, airborne and ground-based “Earth Observation Technologies” with the aim of studying environmental and geophysical processes.
