Version History of Geographical Data Records in Vasterbotten Dataset
The table 'clc12_72g_so__history' is a historical database that is part of the 'vasterbotten' dataset collection. It stores the version history of its base table rows, hence allowing for tracking changes over time. This historical aspect is enabled by two crucial columns, one that records the date when a row was extracted from the data source, and another that notes the date when a new version of the row was extracted. A unique combination of these two columns identifies each row in the table. The table also has a column that contains the row number from the raw data source. If the end date for a row is null, it signifies that the row is the most recent version.
The table also contains geographic information which initially was in a shapefile format, a common format for storing geometric location and attribute information of geographic features. This information has now been transformed into a more usable format.
The table is sourced from 'Lantmäteriet' (The Swedish National Land Survey) in Sweden.
This table could be extremely useful in data analytics. For instance, by tracking the changes in geographic features over time, analysts could gain insights into the changing landscape, which could inform land management and conservation strategies. Furthermore, the historical data could be used for predictive analytics to forecast future changes. The table could also be used in auditing and data quality assessment by comparing different versions of the same row over time.
