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.

NIBIO maps farmland (fulldyrket and overflatedyrket jord) that has been surveyed; gardens, built-up land, forest and unsurveyed areas have no figure, so not_found says the point is unmapped, not that the ground has no soil qualities worth knowing.
A survey figure describes the soil across the mapped figure at the survey year, not a test of this plot. Drainage is the natural drainage class before any installed drainage.

Fields

5 of 17 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps.

Why it cannot be tried here

This section is not part of the public demo projection. That is a licensing and privacy decision, not a sign the data is missing: it is served to customers granted the section.
