The dataset describes the sensitivity of Finnish forests to snow disturbances. The map is based on a statistical model fitted with damage observations in the national forest inventory (NFI) combined with open GIS data layers from the Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luke), Finnish Meteorological Institute and National Land Survey of Finland. The values on the map are probabilities (from 0 to 1) that have been multiplied by 1000 and converted to integers. Detailed description of the data can be found in the attached research article. A difference to the description in the paper is that the snow load values (variable “Snowload) in the calculation of this map are 5-year return rates of maximum snow load.
