Re: Access to butterfly dataset

Hi everyone,

I have just discovered the NBN Gateway and would like to obtain access to the dataset "Butterfly distributions for Great Britain for the period 2005-2009 from Butterfly Conservation and the Biological Records Centre".

I do not need raw data, but I am at a loss as to how to get access to the level of data that is implied as being freely available.  I have asked through the help contact but have not had a reply, so I am trying the forum.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks and regards,

    Colin

Re: Access to butterfly dataset

Hi Colin, welcome to the forum.

There may be easier ways, but if you log in (assuming that you have registered) and click on the dataset name to view the dataset metadata, in the 'Dataset Use' section, under 'Your access to this dataset', you should find a link saying '>>Apply for better access'.

Hope that helps.

Re: Access to butterfly dataset

Mike,

Many thanks - I had assumed that link was purely for raw data applications!
