Grid net for statistics 1 km x 1 km covers whole of Finland. The grid net includes all grid squares in Finland. The location reference of a grid square is the coordinates of the bottom left corner of each grid cell. An identifier in accordance with national conventions (consecutive numbering) and INSPIRE definitions (format: 1kmNxxxxExxxx, where 1 km expresses the square grid size, N the y coordinate of the bottom left corner of the square divided by 1,000 and E the x coordinate of the bottom left corner of the square divided by 1,000) has been produced for each grid cell. The Grid net for statistics 1 km x 1 km is the area division used in the production of statistics by 1 km x 1 km squares. For utilizing grid data auxiliary tables of regional classifications are available: https://www.stat.fi/org/avoindata/paikkatietoaineistot/tilastoruudukko_1km_en.html.
