-At the moment, there are the following countries planning to add station to LOFAR or have them already funded: +A document has been drafted detailing the site requirements, the placement and the layout of a LOFAR station on an LOFAR site in countries outside the Netherlands (stations in the Netherlands have a different layout). This document tries to address a lot of questions that we are frequently asked.
