Historical Version Records of Base Table Rows within the Blekinge Dataset Collection

The 'History' table originates from the 'Lantmäteriet' (National Land Survey) website in Sweden. This table is a rich collection of chronological data that maintains a version history of its base table rows. Each row is uniquely identified by a combination of start date and row number, with the start date marking when the row was extracted from the data source. This table also includes an end date, indicating when a new version of the row was extracted. If the end date for a row is null, this signifies that this version of the row is the most recent.

Geographic information in this table is presented in a final geographic format, with the original source being a shapefile. Shapefiles are common for storing geographic features, which can be represented as points, lines, or polygons. This table, therefore, contains a wealth of spatial information.

The data in this table could be utilized in several ways. For instance, the version history could be invaluable in tracking changes over time, providing a snapshot of how the base table rows have evolved. The geographic information can be used in spatial analysis, helping to identify patterns or trends that are geographically based. For example, it could assist in studying the impact of certain changes over time in specific regions. The table could also assist in data validation, by comparing the versions of the base table rows, to ensure data accuracy and consistency.
