DATA TRANSPARENCY
Data Sources & Reliability
Platsvy uses Swedish geospatial datasets for preliminary industrial site screening. Results depend on source coverage, currency and data quality.
Screening checks direct spatial intersections only. Dataset publication dates, update dates and completeness have not yet been verified in this dashboard. No legal or permitting determination is provided.
Environmental Screening Results
Direct intersections between the selected site and five environmental GIS datasets.
SPATIAL INTERSECTION ANALYSIS
REAL GIS RESULTS
Protected Area Details
Named protected areas intersecting the selected site, including available identifiers and overlap measurements.
Overlaps from different protection categories or designations may cover the same land. Reported areas must not be added together without geometric deduplication.
CONTAMINATED LAND SCREENING
REAL GIS DATA
Potentially Contaminated Sites · EBH
Registered potentially or confirmed contaminated locations within the selected site and its 500 m surroundings.

Results indicate intersections with mapped flood extents only. Missing coverage or zero overlap does not establish that a site is free from flooding.
TRANSPORT & ACCESSIBILITY
OPENSTREETMAP
Nearest Transport Infrastructure
Straight-line distances from the site boundary to the nearest mapped roads, railways, stations, airports and ports.
Straight-line distances only. Not driving distance, travel time, legal access, weight or height restrictions, or rail-siding feasibility. Source: © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).
UTILITIES & ENERGY
OPENSTREETMAP
Mapped Utility Infrastructure
Straight-line distances from the site boundary to mapped power lines, substations, power plants, pipelines and water facilities, and lines or pipelines crossing the site.
Mapped infrastructure only; utility mapping in OpenStreetMap is incomplete. Proximity does not establish spare capacity, connection feasibility, ownership consent or connection cost. Contact the network owner for capacity and connection terms. Source: © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).
PLANNING & LAND USE
OPENSTREETMAP
Land Use & Surroundings
Mapped actual land use of the site and of a 500 m ring around it, and straight-line distances to housing, schools, preschools, hospitals and care homes.
Actual mapped use, not the legal planning status. The detailed plan (detaljplan) and comprehensive plan (översiktsplan) must be checked with the municipality. Forest, wetland, water and open land come from mapped land cover; land with nothing mapped is shown as not classified. Source: © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL).
PERMITS & CONSTRAINTS
BOVERKET · RAÄ
National Interests & Ancient Monuments
National interests (riksintressen) on the site or within 2 km, registered ancient monuments and other remains on the site or within 500 m, and the indicative shoreline protection zone (strandskydd).
A national interest is not a ban: it is weighed in plans and permits by the municipality and the county administrative board. Some defence interests are not shown on maps; tall structures and emissions may need consultation with the Swedish Armed Forces. The monument register holds known remains only and is not legally binding on its own. Sources: Boverket (riksintressen, live map service); Riksantikvarieämbetet, Kulturmiljöregistret (open data).
PLANNING · DETAILED PLANS
LANTMÄTERIET · NGP
Detailed Plans (Detaljplaner)
Legally binding detailed plans on and around the site: whether a plan is in force or in preparation, what land use it allows on the site, its rules (heights, implementation period) and the plan documents.
From Lantmäteriet's national geodata platform, which holds plans in the national digital format and plans that municipalities have converted. Many older plans are not yet digital: no digital plan found does not mean there is no plan. Always confirm the planning status, and any comprehensive-plan intentions, with the municipality. Shares of the site are calculated from the digital plan outlines and are indicative. Source: Lantmäteriet, Geodatakatalog (Detaljplan), published by each municipality.
TERRAIN & SLOPE
LANTMÄTERIET · 1 M
Terrain Scan
Heights, slope classes and an indicative earthworks volume for the site, from Lantmäteriet's 1 m terrain model. Drag the 3D view to turn it.
Heights in RH 2000. Slope is computed on 2 m cells; small banks and ditches can be smoothed out. The earthworks figure levels the whole site to one platform at its mean height; real designs use terraces and balance cut and fill, so it is an indication of scale only. Height in the 3D view is exaggerated. Source: Lantmäteriet, Markhöjdmodell Nedladdning.
MARKET · WORKFORCE
SCB
Labour Catchment & Towns
People living within 10, 30 and 50 km of the site, the working-age population (20–64), its change over five years, and the nearest urban areas.
Residents, not available workers: commuting patterns, jobs and unemployment are not included. Straight-line distance from the site boundary to the centres of 1 km squares. SCB protects individuals with a statistical method, so small areas can differ slightly from true counts. Sources: SCB, Statistik på rutor (Register över totalbefolkningen) and Statistiska tätorter.
MARKET · INDUSTRY
NATURVÅRDSVERKET · OSM
Industrial Neighbours
Large industrial facilities within 10 and 30 km by sector, the nearest ones by name, and mapped industrial land around the site.
Industrial neighbours are facilities reporting under the EU industrial emissions rules (large plants, waste and energy sites, intensive livestock farms); smaller industry is not included, and industry codes come from the EU registry of 2018. Sources: Naturvårdsverket, Produktionsanläggningar; OpenStreetMap industrial land.
MARKET · BUSINESS
SCB
Business & Commercial Areas
Where jobs are concentrated around the site: business areas by their largest industry (including construction), the nearest ones, and retail trade areas.
Business areas are SCB's statistical areas of concentrated workplaces (2020); jobs are rounded to the nearest 50 and grouped by each area's largest industry, so an area led by trade can still hold factories. Radar distances use a square-root scale; direction is from the site centre to a point inside each area. Sources: SCB, Statistiska verksamhetsområden and Statistiska handelsområden.
MARKET · COMPANIES
SCB FÖRETAGSREGISTRET
Companies by Sector
Workplaces of companies and organisations with employees around the site, by sector: construction firms, manufacturers, logistics, engineering consultants, staffing agencies and more. Click a sector to see its largest workplaces within 30 km.
Active workplaces (arbetsställen) of legal persons with at least one employee; sole traders are left out. SCB gives employees only as size classes, so totals are estimates (≈) from the middle of each class. Sectors follow each workplace's primary industry code (SNI 2025); coordinates are the property centre. Straight-line distance from the site boundary.

Part of the selected site contains SGU-mapped material without a specific soil classification. Ground conditions cannot be determined from this classification alone. Additional geological and geotechnical investigation may be required.

when relevant evidence is available.
Preliminary screening only. Surface geology and regional geotechnical indicators do not establish bearing capacity, foundation design parameters, groundwater levels or site-specific ground safety. Engineering decisions require appropriate ground investigations and qualified professional assessment.
Preliminary spatial screening only. No overall site suitability determination or permit decision is provided.
SIDE BY SIDE · NO OVERALL SCORE
Compare Sites
Up to 4 analysed sites, fact by fact. In each row the more favourable value is marked green and the less favourable amber, where the direction is clear. Rows are never added up into a score: what matters most depends on the project.
Values are snapshots from each site's screening at the time it was added, with the same sources and limitations as Site Assessment. Kept in this browser only.
REPORTS & PROJECTS
Projects
Keep the candidate sites of each client or assignment together. Saved sites reopen exactly as analysed, with their save date; compare them or print their reports at any time.
Projects are stored on this computer by the Platsvy backend (data/projects/). Saved results are snapshots of preliminary screening at the save date.
