ELY Areas 2022 (1:1 000 000) - Table in Dataset Collection 'tilastointialueet_ely1000k_2022'
The table, sourced from the 'Tilastokeskus' (Statistics Finland) website, presents a collection of data related to the ELY Centres in Finland as of 2022, providing valuable information for geographic and statistical analyses. The data is organized into a diverse range of columns, each serving a specific purpose.
Two significant columns are '_extract_date' and '_row_number', which together, uniquely identify each row. The '_extract_date' indicates the date when the data was extracted, and the '_row_number' denotes the row number in the data extracted on that particular date.
The table contains several columns prefixed with 'geom_', which hold geographic information. These columns provide a wealth of data for geospatial analysis, with geographic coordinates presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, where longitude comes first, followed by latitude.
Columns such as 'ely', 'id', 'name', 'namn', and 'nimi' provide information about each ELY Centre, including its unique identifiers and names in different languages. Other columns like 'vuosi' provide additional context, like the year of data validity.
The data in this table could be utilized in various ways. For instance, it could be used in geospatial data analytics for mapping and visualizing the geographic coverage of different ELY Centres. Alternatively, by combining this data with other demographic or economic data, one could perform regional analyses to understand patterns or trends across different ELY Centres. Additionally, the data could also be used for tracking changes over time, given the presence of the '_extract_date' column.
Field Descriptions
| Name | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| _extract_date | date | This column contains the date when the data on the row of the table was extracted from the data source. It helps to understand when the specific data was updated lastly. |
| _row_number | long | This column contains the row number in the data extracted from the source on the extract date specified by the column '_extract_date'. This unique combination of '_extract_date' and '_row_number' helps to identify each row distinctly. |
| ely | string | This column contains a string value that represents a specific designation within the dataset. It appears to be a unique identifier or code for each row. |
| geom_geojson | string | This column contains GeoJSON data, which is a format for encoding a variety of geographic data structures. It is used to represent geometric objects such as points, lines, and shapes. |
| geom_geotext | string | This column contains geometric data in text format. This might represent the boundaries or coordinates of a geographical entity. |
| geom_type | string | This column designates the type of geometric data represented in the 'geom_geojson' and 'geom_geotext' columns. The types includes polygons and multipolygons. |
| geom_centroid | string | This column contains the geometric center or centroid of the geographical entity represented by the 'geom_geojson' and 'geom_geotext' columns. It is represented as a point. |
| geom_center_x | double | This column represents the x-coordinate of the centroid of the geographical entity. |
| geom_center_y | double | This column represents the y-coordinate of the centroid of the geographical entity. |
| gml_id | string | This column contains a unique identifier string for each row. It seems to be a technical identifier used for data management. |
| id | long | This column contains unique integer identifiers for each row. It may be used for indexing and data management. |
| name | string | This column contains the English names of the geographical entities represented in the dataset. |
| namn | string | This column contains names of the geographical entities in a non-English language, which may be the local or native language of the geographical area. |
| nimi | string | This column also contains names of the geographical entities in another non-English language, offering a multilingual approach to data representation. |
| vuosi | long | This column contains integer values representing the year associated with the data in the row. It might represent the year when the data was collected or the year the data refers to. |
