All map layers

The map on MapAndMove.se carries hundreds of layers. Here they all are, grouped as in the map's own menu. Click a name to open the map with that layer switched on.

The list is generated from the map's own menu, so it can't contradict what the map actually shows. The sources behind the numbers are listed on Data sources, and a walkthrough of how the whole site fits together is on Guide.

  • EventsWikidata's recurring public events in Sweden: festivals, markets, fairs, parades and races. Just over 200 points. The next date is missing for almost all of them: the map shows that the event exists, not when it takes place.

Nature & environment

Protected nature6

Natural values in forest (Swedish Forest Agency)4

  • Woodland key habitatsSkogsstyrelsen's woodland key habitats: forest land with high natural value. An assessment of natural value, not protection. The inventory has in practice been frozen since 2021.
  • Key habitats (forestry companies)Key habitats that forestry companies such as Sveaskog and SCA have registered with Skogsstyrelsen themselves. A different selection process from the agency's own inventory.
  • Sites with conservation valuesSkogsstyrelsen's sites with natural value: areas just below key habitat level. Also an assessment, not protection.
  • Swamp forestsSkogsstyrelsen's swamp forest inventory: wet and damp forest land, mapped 1980 to 2001, with three quarters interpreted from aerial photos without field visits.

Wildlife & nature2

Land cover (Lantmäteriet)3

  • ForestForest land from Lantmäteriet's land cover data.
  • Agriculture (arable land)Arable land and other farmland from Lantmäteriet's land cover data.
  • IndustryIndustrial land from Lantmäteriet's land cover data.

Felling notifications (Swedish Forest Agency)2

  • Notified felling (5 yrs)Skogsstyrelsen's felling notifications from the last five years, coloured by year of notification. A notification is an intention, not a completed clear-cut.
  • Completed felling (since 2000)Skogsstyrelsen's completed fellings since 2000, mapped from satellite images and coloured by year of felling. Only fellings linked to a notification are included.

Forest base data (Swedish Forest Agency)4

  • Tree heightThe Swedish Forest Agency's laser-derived tree height, mean per 50 m cell: an empty area means no trees, not unmeasured.
  • Soil moistureSLU's soil moisture map in three classes, modelled from laser data and trained on forest land.
  • 3D trees (near urban areas)Individual trees in 3D from Skogsstyrelsen's canopy height model, with height and crown width measured per tree. Built municipality by municipality.
  • 3D trees, impostor (near urban areas)The same trees as 3D trees, but drawn at a distance as billboards against a pre-baked image of the tree: a fraction of the triangles, the same heights and crown widths.
