Decisions to derogate from the ELY Centres

The data includes deviations made by the Centres for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY) in the environmental responsibility area. The maintenance of the data in the ELY Centres has ended with the transfer of the derogating power to municipalities in 2016. There may be shortcomings in the material due to possible digitisation and interpretation errors. In addition, when using the material, account must be taken of the fact that its territorial and temporal coverage may vary from one ELY centre to another. The material mainly covers matters under the Land Use and Building Act (MRL), which entered into force in 2000, but some of them may have been resolved according to the Construction Act in force before then. The data is part of the spatial data (GISALU) produced by the ELY Centres for Local Government Planning and Cultural Environment. The data is part of SYKE’s open datasets (CC BY 4.0). Temporal and locational coverage varies by ELY Centres. The dataset describes the situation of the decisions at the time of the selection on 19 September 2017. Purpose of use: Support the fulfilment of the tasks of the Land Use and Building Act and the various parties will receive feedback on spatial planning and the functioning of the planning system. For more information: https://geoportal.ymparisto.fi/meta/julkinen/dokumentit/GISALU.pdf The data is produced by the Centres for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY) on the basis of its own decision-making data. The material is used, for example, in various tasks under the Land Use and Building Act. The data is available in full at the ELY Centres and in the Environmental Administration via the Geographical Information System. For other users, the data can be viewed and downloaded as national data with limited data content in the Internet services of the environmental administration. The ELY Centres are responsible for producing and updating the materials in their area using the GISALU system. The ELY Centres digitise the data into the GISALU system using the ArcGis Geographical Information System. There may be shortcomings in the material due to possible digitisation and interpretation errors. In addition, when using the material, account must be taken of the fact that its territorial and temporal coverage may vary from one ELY centre to another.
