Cadastral Parcels View service, vector tiles

A view service with property information from Lantmäteriet´s basic data store. The format, vector tiles, provides different possibilities for use than view services in raster formats.

About this product

The product is primarily intended for users developing different types of applications and applications for the web. View services in the vector tiles format allow the access of information for objects, attributes, and allow stylisation of data based on your own wishes or by using Lantmäteriet’s own appearance.

The product provides an opportunity to connect information from the map with our direct access services for property information. In addition, personal stylisation files can be defined to alter the map appearance.

The information is displayed up to a scale of 1:10,000.

Presentation of the information

Administrative divisions, property divisions including fishing, property boundary points, and text. Objects with the attribute object identity have a reference that can be used for searching via Lantmäteriet's direct access services.

Maintenance and update frequency

Property divisions are continuously maintained by the municipal cadastral authorities in connection with real property formation. Within some municipal cadastral authorities, updates are done periodically, meaning that they submit changes monthly. After the information is updated, it takes approximately one hour before it reflected in the service.

Do you want to know why the property boundaries on the map are not always reliable?

Technical framework and standard for view services

Our map and image view services are based on the standardized call interfaces Web Map Service (WMS) and Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) developed by The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). WMS is also an ISO standard (ISO 19128).

The services are of the nature 'question-answer', where the consumer (user's system) sends a service call over the Internet and receives a map image in a standard image format or in a vector format for certain types of services.

The characteristics of the map image are defined by the call parameters, such as information type, geographical spread, reference system, image format and image size.

There are many client applications for display services or components for integration into own system available. In addition to commercial products, there are a number of established products based on open source code, such as QGIS.
