Rough demarcation (Grovustakning):
Rough demarcation is the first step and is usually carried out by the municipality or by a certified GeoTechnical company on behalf of the municipality. The rough demarcation is done according to the situation plan. The situation plan is a drawing which shows where exactly on the site map the building will be placed.
