OpenObs currently offers the following main features:

  • Simple and advanced search (multicriteria) for data based on taxonomic, geographical, temporal and observational information (ex : observation status) and dataset (ex : dataset name)
  • Maps and table visualisation of research results
  • Filters and sorts data according to a wide range of criteria
  • Download the cartographic rendering
  • Unitary data visualization - Access to all the information transmitted by the data producers
  • Download data
