The table belongs to a dataset collection that contains information on postal code areas extending to marine areas for the year 2021, sourced from the Finnish website 'Tilastokeskus' (Statistics Finland). It encompasses a broad range of data points, including geographic information useful for geospatial data analytics. The geographic coordinates are presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with axis order longitude first, followed by latitude.

The table includes details such as the date of data extraction, the number of the row in the extracted data, and various types of geographic data in different formats. The geographic data provides a detailed representation of the postal code areas, including their type (for example, polygon), centroid, center x and y coordinates, and even a GeoJSON representation.

Additionally, the table also contains information like the postal area's name in both Finnish and Swedish, the municipality number, the year, and the size of the area in square meters. Each row in the table is uniquely identified by the combination of the data extraction date and the row number.

Given the breadth and depth of the data, this table can be utilized in various ways for data analytics. For instance, the geographic data could be used to create detailed visual representations of the postal code areas. The size of the areas and the names of the postal areas can be used for demographic studies. The data could also help businesses in logistics or delivery services to optimize their operations based on the geographical layout of the postal code areas. Moreover, the data extraction date and row number could be used to track changes in the data over time, allowing for temporal analysis of the postal code areas.
