The instrument is set up on the roof of a building 17 m above ground level (91 m). The building is located on the campus of Forschungszentrum Jülich in a rural area between the cities of Düsseldorf (47 km north east), Cologne (40 km east) and Aachen (25 km south-west). Jülich is a small town about 4 km away from the station. Within a range of 10 km there are two open cast coal mining areas and a major power plant. Düsseldorf and Cologne both host international airports.
