SNH Bat Casework records 1970-2007

NatureScot

Description

The dataset comprises bat roost location information held within the bat module of SNH's Casework Recording System 1970 - 2007.

Geographic Description

The records cover Scotland.

Purpose

Records of bat casework are recorded on record forms. The great majority of casework is reactive, in response to enquiries received from householders, building managers, or other members of the public.

Data quality

Most records were collected by fully trained SNH staff and bat workers. A few records are based on reports received from householders, builders or other members of the public. There are many records for which only a general 'bat species' can be recorded, where there is evidence of a roost, but the species cannot be identified.

Methods

Records of bat casework were logged in a database, recording species, count and location, together with further information including who visited the location, the method of identification, and any issues associated with bats being present in the property. Most records were collected by fully trained SNH staff and bat workers.
