Data Ffurflenni Trwyddedau Rhywogaethau 2017-2025
Species occurrence records extracted from Natural Resources Wales (NRW) Species Licence Return documents by LERC Wales between January and March 2026. A total of 7,734 records (2010–2025) were captured using a standardised process within the Cofnod Online Recording System.
The dataset is provided as two outputs: a full internal version containing sensitive species and personal data, and a restricted Darwin Core version suitable for external use with appropriate redactions applied. The internal version will be transformed and made available to NRW staff through internal GIS systems.
Records have undergone validation and quality assurance, with some excluded or flagged due to data quality issues. The dataset represents a point-in-time extraction and may be updated as additional licence return data are processed.
Only a redacted version of this data is available under the Open Government Licence and available for public use, see Limitations on Public Access and Use Constraints.

Data were manually extracted from NRW Species Licence Return documents (2017–2025) and entered into the Cofnod Online Recording System using a customised form. Standard fields (species, date, grid reference, recorder and licence details) were recorded, with additional information captured where available.
Records were checked for duplication, validated using system rules, and approximately 10% were independently verified. The dataset was then exported into two versions: a full internal dataset containing sensitive species and personal data, and a Darwin Core version with sensitive species and selected personal data fields redacted for external sharing.
Records were excluded where data were missing, duplicated or unusable, and a small number were flagged for data quality issues. A copy of the dataset is retained by the Local Environmental Records Centre (LERC) for further validation and curation; records published by NRW to the NBN Atlas represent an unverified version of the data and may not reflect subsequent verification by the LERCs.

This data is comprised of a mixture of third party owned records and NRW records. NRW permits access to and release of this data under the same terms as its own data. Part of this dataset is sensitive and access may be restricted under relevant legislation due to the inclusion of personal data and exact locations of sensitive species. NRW may NOT publish or disseminate the sensitive elements of the dataset, including the full internal version of the data. Requests should be referred to NRW's Access to Information Officer. However, there are no access restrictions on non-sensitive data. NRW may release, publish or disseminate a redacted version of the dataset freely.
