kartläggning

Kartläggning is a Swedish term that translates to "mapping" or "surveying" in English. It refers to the process of creating a detailed representation of a physical area, phenomenon, or dataset. This can involve identifying and recording geographical features, boundaries, infrastructure, or other relevant information. The purpose of kartläggning can vary widely, from urban planning and land management to environmental monitoring and scientific research. The methods employed in kartläggning depend on the specific objective, and can include techniques such as aerial photography, satellite imagery, ground surveys, and data analysis. The resulting maps or surveys serve as valuable tools for understanding, planning, and decision-making. In a broader sense, kartläggning can also be applied to non-physical subjects, such as mapping out a company's processes, a person's skills, or the relationships within a social network. The core idea remains the systematic collection and representation of information to gain a clear overview and facilitate further action.
