Details

The Náyade project provides the dataset for Water Quality under the National Law 1341/2007, but it does not matches the evaluation criteria:

• Only the "Enterococos Intestinales" and "Escherichia Coli" levels are meassured (fecal bacteries)
• There's no evidence of meassures for arsenic, fluoride levels or nitrates.

The Náyade project publish the information on a yearly basis and no evidence of re-using policy was found. The Spanish Open Data Portal offers water quality datasets with open licensing for some regions.
