Click on any underlined country name above to go directly to that section of this index or to the {separate country or regional index page}. Within a country, sites are listed alphabetically by city and site-name.
There is a regional locator map which shows all of the sites indexed below which are in countries that do not have their own single-country regional maps. The single-country maps can be reached either from that regional map or from the links at the tops of the corresponding country sections of this index page (below). (The regional locator maps are separate from the site locator maps that can be found from the site data pages.)
Greenland and the Faeroe Islands are indexed with Denmark (since they are Danish territories), but are regionally mapped with Europe as a whole (since they are geographically separated by long distances).
If you are looking for a specific site by its institutional name (e.g., a church or school) or by the instrument's proper name, then use the "find in page" feature of your Web browser to locate a distinctive word (or partial word) in that name.
