Access Finnish Geospatial Data.
# install from CRANinstall.packages("geofi")# Install development version from GitHubremotes::install_github("ropengov/geofi")
Withgeofi-package you can download geospatial data on municipalities,zipcodes and population and statistical grids from Statistics FinlandWFS-api.In addition, you have on-board municipality keys for aggregatingmunicipality-level data into higher level regional distributions basedStatistics FinlandclassificationAPI.
Below are few examples of the data you can access usinggeofi. Pleasehave a closer look at thevignettes formore comprehensive use cases.
library(geofi)d1<- get_municipalities(year=2025)d2<- get_zipcodes(year=2025)d3<- get_statistical_grid(resolution=5)d4<- get_population_grid(resolution=5)d5<- municipality_central_localities()library(ggplot2)library(dplyr)theme_set( theme_minimal(base_family="Arial")+ theme(legend.position="none",axis.text= element_blank(),axis.title= element_blank(),panel.grid= element_blank() ))p1<- ggplot(d1, aes(fill=kunta))+ geom_sf(colour= alpha("white",1/3))+ labs(subtitle="municipalities")p2<- ggplot(d1|> count(maakunta_code), aes(fill=maakunta_code))+ geom_sf(colour= alpha("white",1/3))+ labs(subtitle="Aggregated municipality data\nat region (maakunta) level\n(one of many!)")p3<- ggplot(d2, aes(fill= as.integer(posti_alue)))+ geom_sf(colour= alpha("white",1/3))+ labs(subtitle="zipcodes")p4<- ggplot(d3, aes(fill=nro))+ geom_sf(colour= alpha("white",1/3))+ labs(subtitle="statistical grid")p5<- ggplot(d4, aes(fill=id_nro))+ geom_sf(colour= alpha("white",1/3))+ labs(subtitle="population grid")p6<- ggplot(d5, aes(color= as.integer(kuntatunnus)))+ geom_sf()+ labs(subtitle="Central municipality localities")library(patchwork)wrap_plots(list(p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6),ncol=3)+patchwork::plot_annotation(title="Spatial data in geofi-package")
