Version History Record of Base Table Rows in a Swedish Dataset Collection

The table in focus is a history table, serving as a repository for the version history of base table rows. Specifically, it maintains unique records of each row version, identifiable through a distinct combination of start dates and row numbers. The table also provides a snapshot of when the row was first extracted and when a new version of the same row was extracted, through its start and end date columns respectively. A null value in the end date column signifies that the version of the row is the most recent.

The table is not just a historical record, but it also offers geographical information which has been converted from the shapefile format to a final geographic format. This means it can represent geographic features in the form of points, lines, or polygons (areas).

This table is sourced from the website of 'Lantmäteriet' (The Land Survey of Sweden), based in Sweden.

In terms of application, the data from this table can be leveraged in various ways in data analytics. For instance, the history of the row versions can be used to trace changes and trends over time, enabling predictive modeling. The geographic information can be utilized for geospatial analysis, providing insights into spatial patterns and relationships. Moreover, by combining the historical and geographical data, one can conduct a comprehensive spatio-temporal analysis.
