Soil contamination, V2 surfaces

An area is designated as mapped at knowledge level 2 (V2), if there is provided a documentation basis that makes it with a high degree of certainty can be assumed that the area is a soil contamination of such a nature and concentration that the pollution may have harmful effects on humans and the environment. DK-Jord contains data on soil contamination. Data have been collected in connection with the regions' and the former counties' work on mapping, surveys, etc. concerning soil contamination. DK-Jord contains information on which areas have been mapped at knowledge level 1 (V1) or knowledge level 2 (V2), cf. the Soil Pollution Act. DK-Jord also contains information on which areas are located (LOK), deleted before mapping (UIK) or deleted after mapping (UEK). Localised areas are the areas on which the region has information that has not yet been assessed in relation to mapping, cf. the Soil Pollution Act. Data is associated with localities and a locality may contain several plots/areas. Data on localised areas in the municipalities of Copenhagen and Tårnby are not reported. Please note that other additional data that exist at site level may not apply to all plots/areas under each site. In addition, it should be noted that other supplementary data may vary in scope and quality. We reserve the right to make any input errors, and we would like to point out that DK-Jord is regularly updated.
