HistoriskeKortbladsinddelinger provides polygon footprints of historical map-sheet divisions.

Spatial Access Path

HISTKORT_Kortbladsinddeling → GM_Surface polygon (direct geometry, no joins)

Each sheet division carries its own polygon geometry representing the geographic extent of a single map sheet.

Temporal Model

Bitemporal. Sheet divisions are versioned through virkningFra/virkningTil, but in practice most records represent a stable historical footprint. The maalt_aar and udgivet_aar attributes capture the cartographic temporal provenance directly.
