The Parking payment zones dataset includes the parking payment zones of the inner city of Helsinki as area-type features (polygons). If necessary, the dataset is updated as the location or information of the zones changes.
Parking is subject to a fee in the inner city of Helsinki on almost all streets on working days and on the streets of the central business district on Saturdays as well. Some of the parking spaces in the city centre are also subject to a fee on Sundays and holidays. Parking is only allowed in designated parking spaces, and the traffic sign should always be checked for the times parking is subject to a fee.
The data is available for download in several formats, including JSON, KML, GIF, Tiff, GeoTiff, JPEG, PNG, CSV, Esri Shape. Available formats can always be found under OutputFormat in the GetCapabilities query for the service:
