datavarannoissa

Datavarannoissa is a Finnish linguistic form that functions as the inessive plural of the noun datavaranto, and is used to express the idea "in data repositories" or "within data repositories." The base word datavaranto refers to a data repository, data archive, or a collective store of data resources. The inessive plural form indicates location inside multiple repositories.

Etymologically, datavaranto is built from data and varanto (a stock or store), and the suffixes of Finnish case morphology attach to indicate location. In this case, the plural inessive ending -issa/-issä marks that the referenced data reside within more than one repository. This construction is common in Finnish technical and academic writing, where precise statements about where data are stored or available are important.

Usage of datavarannoissa occurs in contexts describing data management, publishing, or sharing practices. It may appear in sentences such as "Aineistot ovat tallennettu datavarannoissa" (The materials are stored in data repositories) or "Tiedot on sijoitettu datavarannoissa useassa arkistossa." The term helps situate datasets within a distributed data infrastructure, clarifying access, provenance, and governance considerations.

Relation to related terms includes datavarasto and tietovarasto, which refer to data storage concepts at varying scales (such as data warehouses or data repositories). While datavarannoissa specifies location, it is primarily a grammatical form rather than a separate concept, and its use depends on the broader discussion of data stewardship, metadata, and repository practices in Finnish documentation.
