UST GIS — Umhverfis- og orkustofnun
The agency's GeoServer is a public spatial catalogue separate from the existing
air-quality API integration.
API
WFS: https://gis.ust.is/geoserver/ows
INSPIRE:mengadur_jardvegur is the contaminated-land registry, with location,
site name, pollution category and risk classification where known.
Usage
uv run python scripts/ust_gis.py list
uv run python scripts/ust_gis.py fetch
Caveats
- This registry includes confirmed sites, suspected sites and historical
burial/landfill records; it is not a count of remediated contamination.
- Coordinates and risk class may be null, including for otherwise valid rows.
- Keep raw GeoJSON: polygons carry the spatial detail that the tidy table does
not preserve.
