    Frequently Asked Questions

    Answers to the most common questions about this tool

    1What is the Biodiversity Around My House tool and what does it analyze?

    It is a comprehensive biodiversity analysis tool. Enter any address and the tool searches iNaturalist observations in a 5 km radius, retrieves CLC land cover data, and delivers a species inventory, MSA index, diversity indices (Shannon, Simpson, Evenness), IUCN conservation status chart, interactive observations map, and taxa distribution breakdown — all from a single search.

    2How does the 5 km radius analysis work?

    When you enter an address, the tool draws a 5 km radius around the location and queries iNaturalist for all recorded species observations within that area. Results are displayed in a filterable species inventory with Flora/Fauna kingdom filter, taxa sub-filters, name search, and a paginated grid showing species images and conservation status.

    3What data sources are used?

    The analysis combines citizen science observations from iNaturalist (species occurrences in the 5 km radius), Copernicus CORINE Land Cover (CLC) data for MSA index calculation and land use factor analysis, and the IUCN Red List for conservation status classification. The MSA factor breakdown uses CLC to assess Land Use, Climate Change, Infrastructure, and Fragmentation pressures.

    4What is MSA and how is it calculated?

    MSA (Mean Species Abundance) is an index that measures how intact local biodiversity is compared to an undisturbed reference state (1.0 = pristine). The tool calculates MSA from CORINE Land Cover data, breaking it down into four pressure factors: Land Use, Climate Change, Infrastructure, and Fragmentation. Each factor is displayed with a color-coded range so you can see which pressures most affect biodiversity at your location.

    5What are the diversity indices (Shannon, Simpson, Evenness)?

    The tool computes four diversity indices from the observed species: Shannon Index (measures species diversity considering both richness and evenness), Simpson Index (probability that two random individuals belong to different species), Evenness (how equally species are distributed), and Species Richness (total species count). Each index includes a segmented breakdown into native, alien, and endemic species.

    6Can I share my analysis with colleagues?

    Yes. Each completed analysis generates a share link you can send to colleagues. Recipients can view the full results — species inventory, indices, map, and charts — at no credit cost. This makes it easy to collaborate on site assessments and environmental reports.

    7What report formats are available?

    You can download a comprehensive report in PDF, HTML, or DOCX format. The report includes a KPI summary with all indices, species inventory, IUCN status chart, taxa distribution donut chart, and observations map. You can also access your recent analyses from the sidebar history and revisit any previous result.

    8How much does an analysis cost?

    Each biodiversity analysis costs 1 credit. On signup you receive 10 free credits with no credit card required. Additional credit packages start from €19.90. Shared analysis links are free for recipients — only the person who runs the analysis spends credits.
