The table under consideration belongs to a dataset collection that focuses on regional statistics projected for the year 2024 in Finland. The data in the table comes from 'Tilastokeskus' (Statistics Finland), a reliable source of statistical information in the country.

The table contains a rich set of information, with columns providing various types of data. Two special columns, '_extract_date' and '_row_number', play a crucial role in identifying each row uniquely. The '_extract_date' column indicates the date when the specific row of data was extracted, while '_row_number' marks the order of the row in the data extracted on that specific date.

The table is particularly useful for geospatial data analytics, with several columns beginning with 'geom_' containing geographical information. These columns present geographic coordinates using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, where the axis order is longitude first, followed by latitude.

The table provides a wealth of information about different regions, including their names in various languages and their unique identifiers ('gml_id'). It also includes regional codes ('maakunta') and projected data for the year 2024.

Potential applications of this table in data analytics could be abundant. For instance, one could use the geographic information to create detailed maps of the regions and their projected changes. The data could also be used to analyze regional differences or predict future trends based on the 2024 projections. Additionally, the unique identifiers could aid in cross-referencing and combining this data with other relevant datasets for more comprehensive and multifaceted analyses.
