The table is an integral component of a closely related group of information that is organized in rows and columns. The table belongs to a larger dataset collection, which comprises one or more such tables. This particular table forms part of a dataset that is dedicated to Road Traffic Accidents in 2022. It provides a detailed analysis of traffic mishaps that took place during the year 2022, as sourced from the 'Tilastokeskus' website of Finland.

The table is rich in information, detailing not only the date of data extraction but also the specific row number of extracted data, making each row of data unique and identifiable. It provides geographic details that are particularly useful for geospatial data analysis. Geographic coordinates are presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with the axis order being longitude first, followed by latitude.

The table includes a range of other crucial details such as the time of the accident, the type of accident, severity, and various counts related to pedestrians, cyclists, mopeds, motorbikes, and other road users.

The data from this table could be utilized in various ways in data analytics. For instance, traffic authorities could use the data to identify accident hotspots using the geographic information and thus focus their resources on these areas for better road safety. Similarly, researchers and analysts could use the data to identify trends and patterns in road accidents, such as the most common time for accidents to occur or the types of accidents that are most common. This could then inform policy-making and road safety campaigns.

Moreover, insurance companies could use this data to identify high-risk areas and times, which could impact insurance premiums. Additionally, urban planners could use this data to plan road networks and infrastructure more effectively, taking into account accident data to design safer roads.
