The Barents Map

The Barents Region covers a vast area on the top of Europe. It extends over the counties of Nordland, Troms and Finnmark in Norway, Västerbotten and Norrbotten in Sweden, Kainuu, Northern Ostrobothnia and Lapland in Finland, Murmansk oblast, Arkhangelsk oblast, Nenets Autonomous Okrug, the Republic of Karelia and the Republic of Komi in Russia.
The national cadastre and mapping organisations and the regional cadastral offices of northwestern Russia have co-operated to produce a homogenous geographic database covering the whole region. From the database a number of derived products have been created.
The co-operation has been an integrated part of both the Barents Programme and the Interreg III A Nord Programme, Kolarctic.
