Currently, zoning data is not comprehensively and nationally available in Finland to guide the use and development of areas.
The goal of the VOOKA project is to export all current zoning and master plans in Finland in the national data model format to the built environment information system. The work also includes detailed shore plans and shore master plans.
The end result will be a comprehensive vector-formatted directory map, with raster-format plans and documents linked to it. The work will be carried out in close cooperation with the municipalities involved.
VOOKA is part of the development of the built environment information system
The project is coordinated by the Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) and Project Manager Kaarina Vartiainen. The digitisation of zoning data will be acquired as consultancy work. Funding for the project will be requested from the Ministry of the Environment.
The VOOKA project is linked to the Ministry of the Environment and Syke's Ryhti project, which is renewing the management, processing and utilisation of information concerning the built environment.
