Dataset description

Espoo’s natural and environmental data can be accessed through the city’s WFS and WMS spatial data interfaces. The materials include nature reserves, traditional environments, nature trails and valuable natural sites.In addition, a map of alien species is available, which depicts the invasive species of the plant world as well as the outdoor activities of the Guide from Kotinurk to Rock. The Espoo Environmental Protection Service Area manages all of the above except the invasive species map and Kotikalliot levels, which are produced and maintained by the Espoo City Technology Centre. **Addresses of interface services:** — WMS: [https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wms.ashx](https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wms.ashx?request=GetCapabilities) — WFS: [https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wfs.ashx](https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wfs.ashx?request=GetCapabilities) — WFS: For QGIS 2.18-3.x versions it is recommended to use the address: [https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wfs.ashx?OUTPUTFORMAT=GML2](https://kartat.espoo.fi/teklaogcweb/wfs.ashx?OUTPUTFORMAT=GML2) — Description of the interface service: https://kartat.espoo.fi/Paikkatieto/files/WMS-ja_WFS-rajapintakuvaukset.pdf — More information on the datasets and the metadata document on nature data at the Espoo interface (pdf): https://www.espoo.fi/fi/espoon-luontotietoaineistot#section-34836 **Published levels:** Environmental Protection Service Area Materials WFS interface: — GIS:DreasurableWays — GIS:ReasonableNatural Sites — GIS:Geological sites — GIS:Natural protection areas — GIS:Nature Protection Operational Programme GIS: Perinney batteries — GIS:Virtavesi_natural event — GIS: Ecological network Provincially Important Contact Areas — GIS: Ecological network of provincial breaks — GIS: Ecological network Locally accurate connections — GIS: Ecological network Developmental connections — GIS: Ecological network Metsa Network — GIS:Lintutowers — GIS: Nature trails — GIS:Protected natural sites, especially protected species — GIS: Groundwater areas — GIS: spatial demarcation of nature surveys WMS interface: — Ecological network Arvoraster Datasets of the Centre for Urban Technology WFS interface: — GIS:Kotikalliot_regions — GIS:Kotikalliot_nature paths — GIS:Kotikalliot_points — GIS:Visiting species map **More information:** All materials will be updated when they change. More information on valuable natural sites can be found on [the city’s website](https://www.espoo.fi/fi/tietoa-espoon-luonnon-arvokohteista). Information on current waters can be obtained from the city’s [website](https://www.espoo.fi/fi/vesiluonto#section-12889) and [Espoo’s water mapping 2020-2021](https://www.espoo.fi/fi/espoon-virtavesikartoitus-2020-2021-kaupunkipurojen-luonnontila-ja-muuntuneisuus). More information about the Kotikalliot dataset: most of the objects on the levels are those described in the book [from Home to Rock](https://www.espoo.fi/fi/liikunta-ja-luonto/retkelle-luontoon/luontokohteet). Level Home Kalliot_areas include area-shaped (polygon) outdoor guided tours, Kotikalliot_nature paths include nature trails related to outdoor guidance and Kotikalliot_spots related to outdoor guidance. *Please note that only part of the datasets of Espoo’s geospatial interfaces are open to all. Accessing some of the materials requires login, and these materials are not open data.*
