Harva ja tiheä taajama-alueSparse and dense urban settlement area
This dataset from the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE) delineates Finland's urban settlement areas into two categories: dense and sparse. The dense urban settlement area generally corresponds to already-built, plan-zoned urban areas with higher building efficiency, while the sparse urban settlement area mainly covers non-zoned areas of lower building density. The classification supports spatial analysis of settlement structure and land use across Finland, distinguishing compact built-up zones from more loosely developed peripheral areas. It is published as open data via the national open data portal. Geographic coverage is nationwide. It is maintained by Suomen ympäristökeskus.Suomen ympäristökeskuksen taajamarajaus jakautuu tiheään taajama-alueeseen ja harvaan taajama-alueeseen. Tiheä taajama-alue vastaa aluetehokkuudeltaan yleisesti jo rakennettua asemakaavoitettua taajama-aluetta ja harva taajama-alue pääosin asemakaavoittamatonta alhaisen tehokkuuden taajama-aluett...
