Land Cover Classifications and Geometric Data for Norrbotten Region
The table in question forms part of a larger dataset collection related to geographic mapping. It gathers a wide variety of data, including unique object identifiers, geographic codes, and area measurements in hectares. The table also includes detailed geographic information that has been transformed from the shapefile format, a popular format for storing geometric location and attribute information of geographic features. This data can be represented by points, lines, or polygons, providing a comprehensive representation of the geographical features in question. Two special columns are included that denote the unique extract date and row number from the original data source, allowing for precise data tracking. This table is sourced from Lantmäteriet (The National Land Survey of Sweden) in Sweden.
The data in this table could be used in various ways in data analytics. For instance, the geographic information could be used for creating detailed maps or for conducting spatial analysis. The area measurements could be used in environmental studies to monitor changes in land use over time. The extract dates and row numbers could be used to track changes in the dataset over time, allowing for time-series analysis. Overall, this data could provide valuable insights for fields such as urban planning, environmental science, and geography.
Field Descriptions
| Name | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| _extract_date | date | This column holds the date when the data in each row was extracted from the data source. It helps in tracking the data history and changes over time. |
| _row_number | long | This column stores the row number in the data extracted from the source on the extract date specified by the column '_extract_date'. The combination of '_extract_date' and '_row_number' uniquely identifies each row. |
| OBJECTID | long | This column contains unique identifiers for each object or feature in the dataset. |
| ID | string | This column carries unique identifiers for each record, usually prefixed with a code representing the source of the data, for example, 'SE'. |
| CODE_12 | string | This column contains specific codes associated with each record. It could represent specific categories or classes in the dataset. |
| Area_Ha | double | This column stores the area of each feature or object, measured in hectares. It is especially useful in spatial data analysis and geographic information systems. |
| Remark | string | This column is meant for any additional comments or notes related to each record. It appears to be empty in the provided sample data. |
| Shape_Leng | double | This column was likely intended to hold the length of each geographical feature in the dataset. However, it appears to be empty in the provided sample data. |
| Shape_Area | double | This column contains the area of each feature's geometry. It's measured in the same unit of the spatial reference system of the data. |
| geom_geojson | string | This column stores the geometry of each feature in GeoJSON format, a common format for encoding geographical data. |
| geom_geotext | string | This column holds the geometry of each feature expressed in Well-Known Text (WKT) format. It's a standard text markup language for representing vector geometry objects. |
| geom_type | string | This column indicates the type of geometry represented in the 'geom_geojson' and 'geom_geotext' columns. In the sample data, it appears to be polygons. |
| geom_centroid | string | This column stores the centroid or the geometric center of each feature. It's useful for spatial analysis and determining the center point of geographical features. |
| geom_center_x | double | This column contains the X-coordinate (longitude) of the center point (centroid) of each geographical feature. |
| geom_center_y | double | This column contains the Y-coordinate (latitude) of the center point (centroid) of each geographical feature. |
