On-line data providers...

The NBN quite simply could not exist without the dedication of all its data contributors.  The millions of records on the NBN Gateway, from over 75 different organisations, demonstrates the importance of their contribution to the Network. A full list of data providers is available. See the data provider list. 

Other data sources...

To ensure a complete picture of our UK's wildlife information is accessible, the NBN Trust is working with local records centres and national recording schemes and natural history societies to expand the Network beyond the Gateway. See Business tools and Business Guidebook for more details
