Green areas in urban areas WFS
Description
Green areas in agglomerations are geographically defined by Statistics Sweden as part of the production of official statistics on green spaces and green areas in urban areas. The data made available here is thus primarily intended for statistical production.
A green area is defined by Statistics Sweden as an area of contiguous green areas of at least 0.5 hectares and is publicly available. Pasture is included in green areas, but not arable land. Green areas are defined geographically to within urban areas. The minimum accounting unit is 0.5 hectares. The definition therefore does not take into account whether the areas are designated as green areas in the municipalities’ overview or detailed plans.
The demarcation of green spaces is based on satellite data that is co-processed with geographic and register data from Lantmäteriet.
Data are available for two different reference times, 2010 and 2015. The 2010 data cover only green areas in the 37 largest agglomerations according to the 2010 urban demarcation. The 2015 data includes green areas in all agglomerations according to the 2015 urban demarcation.
