two EasyMile EZ10s ran a short Hernesaari course from August 2016 under the Finnish Sohjoa project

Published field: snippet · verbatim
Mapping: mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport

Claim 2 clm-5fd27a8d20abe223 quantitative

the EU-funded Sohjoa Baltic pilot ran an 8-seat shuttle on HSL route 90R in Vuosaari from June to September 2019, carrying 3,932 passengers, with a safety operator aboard throughout

Published field: snippet · verbatim
Mapping: mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says: The project lead's page gives the Vuosaari/Aurinkolahti route 90R, the dates, the vehicle and the ridership of 3,932 passengers over 2,596 km; the Interreg record confirms the project timeframe and the pilot cities.

Claim 3 clm-0f6564d24b7a9ef5 quantitative

Sohjoa Baltic's Helsinki pilot (Vuosaari, Jun-Sept 2019) carried 3,932 passengers over 2,596km

Claim 4 clm-76b52e8a9a35097d quantitative

across all six Baltic Sea pilot cities the programme totalled 19 months of operation, 11,634km and 19,437 passengers

Published field: impact · verbatim
Mapping: mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says: The Interreg project record gives the programme-wide totals across the six pilot cities and the October 2017 to September 2020 timeframe; the keep.eu database record carries the same project dates and the budget.
Caveat: Programme-wide totals across six cities, not Helsinki's.

Across six cities the whole programme moved 19,437 passengers in 19 months of operation: a research output, not a transport service

Published field: lesson · verbatim
Mapping: mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says: The Interreg record's own totals for a project that ran from October 2017 to September 2020 and closed as completed, with no successor service in Helsinki named by any listed source.

Known limits of this passport

Publisher names and source languages have not yet been classified; domains are recorded without guessing.
Existing source notes are descriptive locators, not page- or paragraph-exact citations.
A missing archive, publication date or content hash is shown as null rather than inferred.
The project-level evidence grade ranks the strongest source in the entry; it is not a truth score for every claim.
