Version History of Base Table Rows in the Gavleborg Dataset Collection

The 'clc12_66f_no__history' table is a historical record sourced from the official website of Lantmäteriet (The National Land Survey) in Sweden. It is part of the larger 'gavleborg' dataset collection. As a history table, it maintains the version history of its base table rows, allowing for tracking changes over time. This is achieved through two additional columns that record the date a row was extracted from the source and the date a new version of that row was extracted. Consequently, it provides a unique identifier for each row, based on the extraction date and the row number. The table also contains geographic information, which has been converted from the shapefile format, a common format for storing geographic location and attribute information.

Potential applications of this table in data analytics are numerous. For example, the version history could be used to track changes in land usage or geographic features over time, which could be valuable for urban planning or environmental studies. Additionally, the geographic information could be used to create detailed maps or conduct spatial analysis. It could also be utilized to understand patterns or trends in the data, such as changes in area size or shape over time. Lastly, the row extraction dates could be used to monitor the frequency of updates or changes to the data source.
