The fine print

License note: NLOD 1.0: the directorate's licence page says all use of its data is subject to NLOD, and its acceptance link goes to NLOD 1.0 (same as fiskeridir-aquaculture-register-api). Vessel-level records (vessel names, registration marks) with a pseudonymous fisher ID; Signal Lab lists it as catch data only. Prices claimed as trade secrets are withheld, and value figures are released 12 months after landing.
Required attribution: Required under NLOD 1.0: credit Fiskeridirektoratet (Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries) as the source.

Verdict

Vessel-level catch and landings data for seafood supply agents. Records include vessel names and registration marks; national identity numbers are not released. Use it as catch data, not to look up people. Licensed NLOD-1.0: the directorate's licence page says (Norwegian; Signal Lab translation in brackets): "All bruk av data fra Fiskeridirektoratet er underlagt Norsk lisens for offentlige data (NLOD)." [All use of data from the Directorate of Fisheries is subject to the Norwegian Licence for Open Government Data (NLOD).] and "Den som tar i bruk data fra Fiskeridirektoratet godtar automatisk lisensen som våre data er underlagt" [Anyone who uses data from the Directorate of Fisheries automatically accepts the licence our data are subject to]. That acceptance link goes to "Norsk lisens for offentlige data (NLOD) 1.0". Rate limits: Not stated. Signal Lab links only.
