All areas designated as forest according to the NFI forest definition. The forest definition includes shrub forest. The target variable "forest area" is also used when classifying the total area as forest or non-forest.

Forest area classified according to its functions (including "no special forest function"), as determined in the interview survey with the local forest services. A forest area can fulfil several forest functions at the same time, and can thus contribute to the forest area of several forest functions.

Area of forest with recreational uses such as walking, hiking, jogging, cycling, biking, skiing and snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, horse-riding, camping, other activities, or no activities. Since different recreational activities may take place in a forest at the same time, this forest may contribute to the area of several recreation types.

Forest area in which specific measures for the conservation or promotion of biodiversity have been implemented since the last inventory. Only measures that have been explicitly subsidised as 'biodiversity' measures are taken into account. Since several biodiversity measures may be implemented in a forest area at the same time, this area may contribute to the total area of several different biodiversity measures.

Proportion of sample plots that meet the forest definition of NFI, i.e. are covered by "forest without shrub forest" or "shrub forest".
