The observation site is included in the national station network managed by the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI), with station number 98210 (manual station) and 98230 (automatic station), but data in the current dataset can differ from those in the SMHI database. This dataset was compiled as follows: Data for 1904/05⁠⁠ – 1950/51 was provided personally by staff at the SMHI. Data for 1951/52⁠⁠ – 2018/19 was obtained using data from the <a href="http://opendata-download-metobs.smhi.se/explore/#">SMHI resource Öppna Data</a>, followed by identification of the maximum values in December and December⁠⁠ – April for each winter. Snow depth is currently measured with a ruler or measuring stick every day at 7:00 (Swedish normal time, i.e. UTC+01:00). The measurement is made at a precision of one centimetre and the reported snow depth should preferably be a mean value over at least five measurements within a few metres. More information on how snow depth measurements are made</a> at Swedish meteorological stations is available, in Swedish, at <a href="http://www.smhi.se/kunskapsbanken/meteorologi/hur-mats-snodjup-1.27291">the SMHI website</a>.
