Maintenance and update frequency
The documents in the dossier are drawn up by the Property formation authorities in connection with property formation. In addition to the state authority Lantmäteriet, there are 39 municipal Property formation authorities (KLM) who are responsible for property formation.
In the digital property formation procedure, the dossiers are stored in the digital archive and become immediately available in the service. However, there are still dossiers that are archived in analog form and these are scanned 1-2 times / year.
Our geodata services (APIs) require that you have an application or software capable of managing the services. To view real property information or maps directly in your browser, you can use Lantmäteriet's e-services.

What are you going to do with the information?
How personal data in the Real Property Register may be used is governed by the Real Property Register Act (2000:224) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Before we can give you access to personal information in the Property register, we must evaluate your purpose with the use, which means that we will ask what you want to do.

Lantmäteriet also reviews all orders from a confidentiality perspective. Confidentiality applies, among other things, to information concerning total defence if it can be assumed to damage the country's defence, or is considered to constitute a danger to national security if the information is disclosed in accordance with 15 kap 2 § Public Access to Information and Secrecy Act (2009:400). The evaluation may therefore in some cases take from three to five working days.

Technical framework and standard for direct access services
Our direct access services are mainly based on standards from W3C (new window) and OGC, The Open Geospatial Consortium (new window).
The service interfaces are SOAP or REST based where object types are in many cases built using GML (Geography Markup Language) or JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) to describe its geographical properties.
The services are of the nature 'question-answer' where the consumer (user's system) sends a service call with search terms or selection parameters over the Internet and receives a list with one or more geographical objects in response.
To get there quickly start and test the services before they are integrated in your own system, a tool such as SOAP-UI or Postman can be used. SOAP UI (new window) and Postman (new window) are tools for testing SOAP- or REST-based Webservices.
