Aggregated datasets supporting "A perception screening framework to inform local governance of biological invasions: insights from a multisectoral community in northern Portugal"

This dataset provides aggregated outputs from a study on stakeholder perceptions of biological invasions in Northern Portugal.

The dataset includes:

aggregated data by stakeholder sector across multiple dimensions of perception (framing, species of concern, management acceptability, and expectations)

spatial data aggregated by stakeholder sector, derived from participatory mapping exercises

All data are aggregated and anonymised. No participant-level data are included.

Spatial data represent pooled point locations and include only stakeholder sector and mapping dimension. Points are not linked to individual participants.

The analytical workflow used to generate these datasets is available in a separate GitHub repository:https://github.com/evamalta/perception-screening-workflow
