Environmental data MVM

Last changed: 16 August 2024

Environmental data MVM is a web service for soil, water and environmental data, which is used to make data available from two of SLU's data hosts, Agricultural Land and Lakes and Watercourses. Data comes from studies of crops, soils, pesticides, water chemistry and biology in lakes and streams.

The data hosts are mandates from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management, which means that SLU stores, quality assures and makes available data collected through national and regional environmental monitoring.

Data collected through national and regional environmental monitoring within the Swedish EPA's programme areas of Agricultural Soil and Air are included in the data hosting for agricultural soil. Monitoring programmes included are, among others, Monitoring of agricultural catchments and Soil and crop inventory. The data hosting also makes the Swedish Board of Agriculture's national soil mapping available.

The lakes and watercourses dataset includes water chemistry and biological data collected in national and regional environmental monitoring, recipient monitoring and municipal monitoring. Environmental data MVM also contains data from other projects and research where the same methods used in environmental monitoring have been used.
