A view service in accordance with the EU directive INSPIRE that presents property information from Lantmäteriet’s basic data store. The map information is separated into 13 layers. The product name in Swedish is Fastighetsindelning Visning.
About this product
A view service in accordance with the EU directive INSPIRE.
For each of the layers in the service there is one or more pre-defined presentation methods, called styles. By changing style for a layer, you can affect how the information is presented.
Maintenance and update frequency
The property classification is updated continuously by the Land Survey authorities in connection with property formation. Some municipal Land Survey authorities update this information periodically, which means that they submit changes monthly. It usually takes an hour for an update to become visible in the service.

Documentation
Different versions of the services can overlap, so pay attention to which version you use. Version history describes the changes that occurred with each update.
Version and date | Change since last version |
---|---|
Version 1.2 New version |
Expanded by three layers for property division that meets the requirements for the EU directive INSPIRE. The service is supplemented with GetLegendGraphic for easier legend access. The quality presentation of property boundaries and boundary points is supplemented with four classes. The service now provides the possibility to choose between four or six quality classes. |
Version 1.1.2 Discontinued 2018-10-24
|
The quality marking of boundary points’ and property boundaries’ mean errors is expanded by two levels and the interval is adjusted. Because of this, the colour palette for the levels has been expanded with two new colours. |
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 Open Geospatial Consortium website (new window)
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.
At OSGeo, The Open Source Geospatial Foundation you can read more about software in the field of geodata that are based on open source code.
Do you want deeper technical information about our geodata products you can read the product documentation.
