Järviwiki:Tietoa palvelusta/
Lake-seawiki (Järvi-meriwiki in Finnish) is a web service which is built and maintained in cooperation by authorities and common people. In Lake-seawiki there is basic information on sea areas and each Finnish lake over 1 ha in extent as well as tools for sharing ie. observations and pictures. The first version of Lake-seawiki was announced in March 2011.
Lake-seawiki was created with the aim of sharing information on Finland's lakes and the sea, to raise awareness and promote the protection of our waters. The idea is to do this together, with a positive attitude and non-judgementally.
Founders and maintenance
Lake-seawiki was founded and is maintained by the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE).
The development of Lake-seawiki has been sponsored by Maa- ja vesitekniikan tuki ry. (the Land and Water Technology Foundation). Additional funding has been provided by the EU Life+ fund, as part of GisBloom -project.
