The table, part of a dataset collection, consists of a variety of information related to 'Regions 2017' (translated from Finnish 'Maakunnat 2017'). The data in the table is sourced from the 'Statistics Finland' (Tilastokeskus) website in Finland. It contains several columns with diverse types of data, which can be utilized for data analytics purposes.

The columns include two special ones, 'extract_date' and '_row_number'. The former indicates when the data row was extracted, while the latter specifies the row number in the extracted data. These two columns together make each data row uniquely identifiable. Additionally, there are multiple 'geom' prefixed columns that encapsulate geographic information, useful for geospatial data analytics. The geographic coordinates are presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with the axis order being longitude first, followed by latitude.

The data in the table can be utilized in various ways. For instance, the geographic information can be used to create visualizations of the regions, or 'maakunta', to gain a better understanding of the geographic distribution of the data. Similarly, the '_extract_date' and '_row_number' columns could be used to track the evolution of the data over time, revealing possible trends or patterns. Moreover, the table could be used to perform comparative studies on the data from different regions or years, potentially unearthing interesting insights.
