Version History of Base Table Rows in Swedish Land Survey Dataset
Click here for a data sample
The table in question is a historical record, providing a version history of the rows in its base table. The table, part of a dataset collection, is sourced from the website of Lantmäteriet (The Land Survey) in Sweden. It offers a unique view into the evolution of data over time, with each row identified by a unique combination of its start date and row number. This allows for efficient tracking of changes over time. The start date indicates when the row was extracted from the data source, while the end date signifies when a new version of the row was extracted. A null value in the end date column indicates that the row is the most recent version. The table contains additional geographic information, originally in shapefile format but transformed into a final geographic format for this dataset. This geographic information can represent points, lines, or polygons (areas), providing valuable spatial insights. In data analytics, this table could prove useful in various ways. For instance, it could be used to track changes in geographic data over time, identify trends or anomalies in the data evolution, or provide a historical context for predictive analytics. The geographic information could also be used for spatial analysis, such as identifying patterns or correlations in geographic features.
