Perusmaa

Perusmaa is a Finnish term that translates to "basic land" or "foundation land." It refers to land that is considered essential for a particular purpose, often in a legal or administrative context. This concept is particularly relevant in Finnish land law and property management. Perusmaa can encompass areas designated for public use, infrastructure, or natural resources that are deemed fundamental for the functioning of a community or region. The identification and management of perusmaa play a role in urban planning, environmental protection, and the allocation of resources. Its definition and application can vary depending on the specific legislation or policy in question, but the core idea remains the preservation and utilization of land considered indispensable.
