kartoitettuja

Kartoitettuja is a Finnish linguistic form that functions as the plural partitive of the past passive participle kartoitettu, derived from the verb kartoittaa meaning to survey, map, or inventory. As a participle used as an adjective, kartoitettu describes something that has undergone a survey or inventory. The form kartoitettuja is used with nouns in the partitive plural (or with the noun omitted), for example kartoitettuja vaihtoehtoja or kartoitettuja riskejä.

Usage of kartoitettuja is common in contexts such as research reports, project documentation, risk assessments, market analyses, and official inventories. It marks that the items in question have already been examined or cataloged. For instance, phrases like kartoitettuja vaihtoehtoja (surveyed alternatives) or kartoitettuja kohteita (surveyed targets) illustrate how the term functions in practical writing.

Grammatically, kartoitettu is the past passive participle form of the verb kartoittaa. The suffix -ttu/-tty forms a participle, and the plural partitive ending -ja/-itä yields kartoitettuja when referring to multiple items or aspects. The word must agree in number and case with the noun it modifies, and it is typically used with a following noun in the partitive case.

Related terms include kartoitus (the act of surveying or mapping) and kartoittaa (to survey). Kartoitettuja can also occur within larger phrases describing data or findings that have been collected and assessed, such as kartoitettuja tietoja or kartoitettuja riskitekijöitä.
