The website is the Environmental Agency of the Republic of Slovenia’s main website and has been designed to provide the general public with the maximum amount of data in the shortest possible time. For this reason, the pages are designed to be simple and transparent, following the model of the most widely established standards, and to have as few graphic features as possible, so that access is also possible in very poor infrastructural conditions.

The ARSO website has been optimised for browsers which support CSS2 (Internet Explorer 5, Netscape 6 or later), for screen resolution 1024x768 pixels and 32-bit colour depth. Care has also been taken to enable users using different software and hardware to access the data on our website, although in some cases the appearance of the website is no longer appropriate.

With the aim to provide the public with data in the shortest possible time, most online data on the environment are measured using automatic or other methods, the accuracy and precision of which are confirmed at a later date. The data may be changed subsequently, after the completion of control procedures.

All information and material on www.arso.gov.si are for informative purposes only.
