Label	Coordinate Accuracy (m)
Definition	The largest distance (in meters) defining the smallest bounding box that contains the entire location of the occurrence.
Notes	If the original source reported the coordinates as a point without uncertainty, the accuracy is interpreted as one meter. The values are typically classified logarithmically: 1, 10, 100, 1000... Alternatively, the exact reported coordinate uncertainty is used if available. For occurrences reported in WGS84 coordinates outside Finland, the calculation is based on the decimal difference of the bounding box edges.

Notes	The occurrence area may span one or more 10 km YKJ grid cells. This value refers to the grid cell that contains the geographic center of the area. These 10 km grids have been widely used in Finnish biological recording, especially for species atlas projects and distribution mapping, and therefore remain relevant for many data usage scenarios.The YKJ (Uniform Coordinate System) was a national coordinate system used in Finland.
