Geological Survey of Finland - Rock Classification History (Finland)
Click here for a data sample
This table contains the version history of the 'Litologiset Luokat' table sourced from the website of the Geological Survey of Finland (Geologian tutkimuskeskus). The data in this table represents various geological information related to rock formations. Each row in this table represents a different version of a rock formation record, with additional columns '_start_date' and '_end_date' indicating the extraction dates of each version. The table includes columns such as 'gml_id', 'objectid', 'eon', 'era', 'period', 'chronostraticraphic_unit', 'epoch', 'supersuite', 'suite', 'lithodeme', 'unit_criterion', 'original_name', 'rock_class', 'rock_name', 'shape_area', 'shape_len', 'nick_name', 'phase', 'supergroup', 'group_col', 'formation', 'member', 'complex', 'geom_geojson', 'geom_geotext', 'geom_type', 'geom_centroid', 'geom_center_x', and 'geom_center_y'. These columns contain various attributes related to the geological characteristics of the rock formations. The data in this table can be utilized for data analytics purposes, such as trend analysis of geological changes over time, identification of rock formations based on their attributes, or spatial analysis using the geometric information. The table is sourced from Finland (ISO country code: 'fi').
