147,890 UFO sightings from NUFORC, scraped on January 16, 2024.
The best representation of the data is nuforc.json, but I also converted this to .csv files.
Each .csv has a different approach to the "Characteristics" column:
nuforc_str.csvhas a "Characteristics" column that looks like this:"Aircraft nearby, Animals reacted"nuforc_list.csvhas a "Characteristics" column that look like:"['Aircraft nearby', 'Animals reacted']"nuforc_bool.csvhas one column for each characteristic, with values asTrueor null (empty).
Note that while this is a crowdsourced database compiled from the reports of hundreds of thousands of individuals, NUFORC also claims copyright over the reports with invisible text at the bottom of every page reading "© 2023 National UFO Reporting Center.
