What this does not say

Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.

  • plot_area_m2 is the Matrikkel's registered (beregnet) area of the teig containing the address point; plot_area_geometry_m2 is the area of the published polygon, which differs where boundaries are uncertain — boundary_accuracy_class is Kartverket's own class. A matrikkelenhet can consist of several teiger; this is the piece under the house. Neighbourhood figures are over teiger of 50–20 000 m² within 500 m, which excludes roads, commons and outfields.

Fields

15 of 20 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.

This is a real call against the public demo, from here. What appears below is what the API returned — not a sample.
