The table, extracted from the Finnish Statistics Bureau (Tilastokeskus) website, provides in-depth geographical information about the AVI areas for the year 2024 at a 1:4,500,000 scale. The data includes specific designations such as the State Department of Åland, Southern Finland AVI, and Northern Finland AVI, among others, with corresponding Finnish and Swedish names.

Each row in the table represents an individual AVI area, uniquely identified by the combination of the extraction date and a row number. For instance, data extracted on a particular date, say November 11, 2024, would be tagged with that date and a unique row number for identification purposes.

The geographical information is presented in several formats, facilitating geospatial analytics. This includes GeoJSON and GeoText formats, the type of geometric shape that represents the area (e.g., multi-polygon), and the centroid point, which is the geographic center of the area. The geographic coordinates are presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with the longitude listed first, followed by latitude.

This rich set of information could be harnessed in a variety of ways in data analytics. For example, the geographic data can be used to create detailed maps of AVI areas. These maps could then be used to analyze regional differences, track changes over time, or identify patterns and trends. Similarly, the unique identifiers for each row allow for tracking and comparing changes in specific areas over time. Finally, the multi-language support with Finnish and Swedish names for each area could facilitate international research or cross-cultural studies.
