In Building Download, vector, buildings are provided in nine different layers with information about buildings and facilities. The product name in Swedish is Byggnad Nedladdning, vektor.
About this product
The product contains buildings and facilities including airports. The land distribution for facilities mainly describes industrial activities or activities related to sports, leisure or culture.
Building Download, vector can be combined with other vector products, such as Administrative Units Download, vector or Cadastral Parcels Download, vector.
The vector format allows you to customize the map to your own business.
You can:
- add and link your own information to objects in the map
- integrate the map information into your own system
- combine with information from the Real Property Register, for example information about buildings
- show or hide information using the layering
Geographical selection: Any polygon, municipality, county, Sweden
Delivery formats: GeoPackage
Coordinate systems: SWEREF 99 TM (EPSG:3006), SWEREF 99 local zones (EPSG:3007-3018).
Maintenance and update frequency
The information is partly updated periodically in Lantmäteriets own direction, partly more continuously in collaboration. The in-house collection is carried out through interpretation in aerial images in stereo and orthophoto.
Collaboration takes place all over the country, but in order to achieve completeness, additions through photogrammetric updating are required. The timeliness in different areas therefore depends on the image supply program and the agreements that exist with the collaboration partners.
Pre-produced data
Some deliveries of geodata are done from a pre-produced layer that is updated once a week. This applies to deliveries of county, municipal and national selections. When county and national selections are delivered in the coordinate system SWEREF 99 TM or when the municipal selections are delivered in local SWEREF systems, the data is collected from the pre-produced layer. All other deliveries are done from data sources updated once a day.
