  • Historical Version Records for 'Regional Units 2016 (1:1 000 000)'TSV

    The 'table__history' is a part of a larger dataset collection that houses related data tables. This particular table is a history table, storing the version history of the base table rows, adding a unique aspect to its structure. The table is distinguished by two additional columns: '_start_date' and '_end_date', which respectively indicate the date of row extraction from the data source and the date when a new version of the row was extracted. If the '_end_date' value is null, this signifies that the row is the most recent version. The table's contents are representative of the 'Seutukunnat 2016 (1:1 000 000)' base table, which could be loosely translated to 'Regions 2016 (1:1 000 000)'. Each row in the table is uniquely identified by a combination of the '_start_date' and...

  • Regional Units 2016 (Scale 1:1 000 000) - Dataset TableTSV

    The table under consideration contains information related to regional units in Finland from the year 2016, as sourced from the Finnish statistical authority, 'Tilastokeskus'. This data is part of a wider dataset collection, which potentially includes other related tables. Each row in the table presents data for a specific regional unit, with the data extracted on a specific date. The data fields include various geographic coordinates, names of regions in different languages, a unique identifier, and a year indicator. The geographic coordinates presented in the table use the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with the axis order being longitude first, followed by latitude. These coordinates could be highly valuable for geospatial data analytics, for example, for creating detailed maps...
