The table, which belongs to the dataset collection 'tilastointialueet_kunta1000k_2023', contains a vast amount of geospatial data pertaining to municipalities in the year 2023. The data is sourced from the website of the Finnish Statistical Centre, 'Tilastokeskus'. This table includes a variety of columns with unique identifiers, geographic information, and municipality details.

Key columns like 'extract_date' and '_row_number' provide information about when the data was extracted and the unique row number in the extracted data. Together, these two columns can be used to uniquely identify each row. There are also several 'geom' columns that contain rich geographic data, which can be utilized for geospatial data analytics. These columns hold information about geographical shapes and center coordinates of the municipalities, displayed in WGS 84 coordinate reference system format with axis order longitude first, followed by latitude.

Other columns provide specific municipality details such as the municipality code ('kunta'), its Finnish name ('nimi'), and its Swedish name ('namn'). The table also includes a column ('vuosi') indicating the year to which the data relates. Using this table, analysts can conduct various forms of data analytics. For example, they can track changes in municipality boundaries over time, conduct spatial analysis to study various phenomena within these municipalities, or even perform predictive analytics based on historical data.
