Artportalen

Observations are entered individually or into several thousand subsets/projects (some of which are individually searchable) by individuals and NGOs (95% of data), by public authorities or agencies, and by corporate enterprises. An observation may include not only the species identity, reporter identity, location and date but additional information such as habitat type and weather can also be entered.

Access to ca. 93% of all data contained in the original dataset is unrestricted, the remainder is data for sensitive species as classified by the national checklist of sensitive species managed by SLU Swedish Species Information Centre. This dataset contains the open data. The restricted data can be retrieved from the original dataset given permission and requiring special log-in credentials.
