Overview stability mapping — Download service

MSB has the Government’s mission to support municipalities and county administrative boards with overviews of soil stability in built-up areas where there are conditions for soil movement. The aim is to identify built-up areas that cannot be categorised as stable. The mapping shall constitute support in the municipality’s risk inventory and risk management and can be used as a basis for the municipality’s master plans. The intention is for the municipality itself to proceed and carry out detailed investigations in designated areas.
Data Reports
• Areas identified as having satisfactory stability.
• Areas which cannot be classified as satisfactorily stable or insufficiently investigated. Due to the lack of buildings, detailed investigation is not recommended.
• Areas which cannot be categorised as satisfactory stable or which are insufficiently investigated and detailed investigation is recommended.
• Areas where detailed investigation is deemed particularly urgent.
• Areas that have previously been classified as satisfactorily stable or which have been reinforced but have not complied with the instructions of the Commission.
• Areas where review of previous investigations and stabilisation measures is considered particularly urgent.
In addition, the data set includes files that appear in the data set that are displayed in the data set, filling, stability measures and stability zones.

Map files in digital form are available for mapping carried out after 2001. The mapping has been carried out in limited areas that are built and where conditions for walking are deemed to exist.
Over time, erosion and human activity can affect conditions.
The overview stability mapping shows the prevailing stability conditions at the time of mapping. The content and reliability of the overview stability maps vary as the methods have been refined over the years. MSB does not make any updates to the material based on changed circumstances or conducted investigations or reinforcements.
