Strukturoitujen

Strukturoitujen is a Finnish inflected form of the adjective strukturoitu, meaning structured. It is the genitive plural form used when the adjective modifies a plural noun in the genitive case. In practice, strukturoitujen appears in phrases describing things that belong to or are characterized by a structure, such as data, datasets, or other items that have been organized according to explicit rules or schemas.

The basic meaning of strukturoitu is that something has been arranged, defined, or organized in a predefined way. When combined with a noun in genitive plural, such as tietojen, aineistojen, or prosessien, it conveys “of the structured …” or “structured …” in a possessive sense. For example, strukturoitujen tietojen lähde means “the source of structured data,” and strukturoitujen aineistojen analyysi means “the analysis of the structured datasets.” Because Finnish adjectives decline, strukturoitujen will appear in various contexts where the head noun is plural and in the genitive case.

Etymology-wise, strukturoitu is a Finnish derivation from the verb strukturoida (to structure), itself a loanword built from the stem structure, aligning with similar terms in data science and information management. The form strukturoitujen is simply one grammatical inflection of that adjective, not a separate lexical item with independent meaning.

In usage, strukturoitujen is common in technical, data-centric, and administrative Finnish, where data quality, data governance, or information architecture are discussed. It helps distinguish between data that are structurally organized and those that are not, contributing to precise descriptions in reports, standards, and analyses.
