Field parcel register The field parcel register is an annual file containing the reference parcels covered by the annual aid application. A reference parcel is a geographically homogeneous area of land cultivated and owned or managed by an individual applicant (excluding commonly used land) and bounded by a municipal boundary, a property boundary, a subsidy or contract area boundary, a watercourse, a district or river, a road, a forest or other similar boundary. A homogeneous area in terms of geography, eligibility and type of land use owned by an aid applicant is a single reference parcel, even if it is made up of several separate registered parcels owned by the applicant. The aim of the definition of valuable data (EU) 2023/138 has been to ensure that the most socially potential public data are re-available. The Food Authority is concerned with the theme of spatial data: reference parcels and agricultural parcels From 2023 onwards, the Food Authority will add attributes to the published data as follows: Field parcel register - Organic production - Slope, ha (Sloping areas in base parcels with a slope of more than 15% in mainland Finland and more than 10% in Åland). - Groundwater area, ha - Natura area, ha - Buffer stripping requirement (metres), m The following new fields are included in the data: LUOMUVILJELY = Organic production: 1=absent or 0=no KALTEVA_ALA = SLOPE_AREA: Sloping areas in the base parcel. Slope in mainland Finland over 15 % and in Åland over 10 %, ha POHJAVESI_ALA = SHOREWATER_AREA: ha NATURA_ALA = NATURA_AREA: ha SUOJAKAISTA_M: Bufferstrip requirement (on parcel) , m.

Maanmittauslaitoksen KM2-korkeusmallin kanssa yhteensopiva korkeusmalli, jossa alkuperäisiä korkeusarvoja on alennettu erityisesti virtavesikohteiden (viivamaiset sekä aluemaiset) ja tieverkoston risteyskohdissa. Alennetut korkeusarvot pyrkivät kuvaamaan virtausreittejä, kuten tierumpuja ja putkia, joita alkuperäisessä KM2:ssa ei ole. Aineisto on tuotettu yhdistämällä useita eri valtakunnan kattavia lähtöaineistoja, joita ovat - korkeusmalli KM2 (Maanmittauslaitos) - Siltojen kansien korkeudet (Syke) - Maastotietokanta (Maanmittauslaitos) - DIGIROAD-tieverkosto (Väylävirasto) - Rumpurekisteri (Väylävirasto) Lisäksi jotkin kunnat ja kaupungit ovat digitoineet Maastotietokannasta puuttuvia virtausreittejä. Korkeusarvot ovat ilmoitettu N2000-korkeusjärjestelmässä. Aineisto on avoin (lisenssi CC BY 4.0). Käyttötarkoitus: Korvaamalla KM2:n korkeusarvot uomakorjausaineiston arvoilla saadaan korkeusmalli, joka soveltuu mm. pintaveden virtauksen mallinnukseen alkuperäistä korkeusmallia paremmin. Tämä mahdollistaa esim. hulevesitulvariskien luotettavamman arvioinnin. Aineisto kuuluu SYKEn avoimiin aineistoihin (CC BY 4.0). Lähde: Syke, Maanmittauslaitos (perustuu Syken, MML:n ja Väyläviraston aineistoihin).

The EMODnet (European Marine Observation and Data network) Geology project collects and harmonizes marine geological data from the European sea areas to support decision making and sustainable marine spatial planning. The partnership includes 39 marine organizations from 30 countries. The partners, mainly from the marine departments of the geological surveys of Europe (through the Association of European Geological Surveys-EuroGeoSurveys), have assembled marine geological information at various scales from all European sea areas (e.g. the White Sea, Baltic Sea, Barents Sea, the Iberian Coast, and the Mediterranean Sea within EU waters). This dataset includes EMODnet seabed substrate maps at a scale of 1:5 000 from the European marine areas. Traditionally, European countries have conducted their marine geological surveys according to their own national standards and classified substrates on the grounds of their national classification schemes. These national classifications are harmonised into a shared EMODnet schema using Folk's sediment triangle with a hierarchy of 16, 7 and 5 substrate classes. The data describes the seabed substrate from the uppermost 30 cm of the sediment column. Further information about the EMODnet Geology project is available on the portal (http://www.emodnet-geology.eu/).

Agricultural parcel containing spatial data The agricultural parcels are a year-by-year data set containing the agricultural parcels in the annual aid application. A agricultural parcel is defined as a continuous area of a single reference parcel where a single crop, a mixture of crops or a mixture of crops is grown, set aside or used for a specific purpose. A reference parcel may have one or more agricultural parcels. A agricultural parcel may belong to only one reference parcel. The boundaries of the agricultural parcels, and hence their areas, may vary from year to year within the reference plot. The aim of the definition of valuable data sets (EU) 2023/138 has been to ensure that the most socially potential public data are reusable. The Food Authority is concerned with the theme Spatial data: reference parcels and agricultural parcels From the 2023 data onwards, the Food Authority will add attribute information to the published data as follows: Agricultural parcel containing spatial data - Organic production New field in the data set LUOMUVILJELY = Organic production: 1=absent or 0=no More information: https://www.ruokavirasto.fi/globalassets/tuet/maatalous/oppaat/hakuoppaat/peltotukiopas/peltotukien-hakuopas-2024.pdf

Harvester Seasons is a service designed to help with estimating evolving trafficability conditions in forested terrain based on weather and model forecast information. The full service is currently provided for the geographical area of Finland.

Agricultural land is the area of arable land (AL), permanent grassland (PG) and permanent crops (PC). Arable land is land cultivated for crop production or fallow land available for cultivation. Permanent grassland Permanent grassland is the area used to grow grasses or other herbaceous forage crops that have been on the same site for more than 5 years, either by self-regulation or by sowing. Permanent grassland may be arable land or natural pasture and meadow. Permanent grassland may not contain more than 50 trees per hectare in a scattered pattern. Trees are considered to be single- or multi-trunked trees and woody shrubs of at least four metres in height. Shrubs of all sizes are also considered as trees. Trees in windbreaks are not counted in the tree count. Deciduous bushes suitable for feeding farm animals and deciduous tree seedlings may be grown on the area if they cover less than half of the area of the eligible plot. More than half (50 %) of the area of the plot must be grass and forage. This requirement also applies to parcels of permanent grassland with trees or deciduous shrubs or both. Permanent crops Permanent crops are crops which are not part of the crop rotation, which are grown for at least 5 years and which produce a repeated harvest. These include fruit trees, berry bushes and ornamental plants. More information: https://www.ruokavirasto.fi/globalassets/tuet/maatalous/oppaat/hakuoppaat/peltotukiopas/maatalousmaa-2024.pdf
