The table originates from the 'Tilastokeskus' website, based in Finland. It holds a collection of data pertaining to regional districts, classified at a 1:4 500 000 scale. The table is part of a larger dataset, illustrating the interconnection and relevance of the data across multiple tables.

The data within the table is organized into several columns, each representing a specific attribute of the regional districts. Two special columns, '_extract_date' and '_row_number', are used to uniquely identify each row. The '_extract_date' indicates the date when the corresponding data was extracted, and '_row_number' denotes the position of the row in the extraction sequence.

A significant portion of the table's data is geographical, represented in columns beginning with 'geom_'. This includes geospatial data such as polygons or multipolygons, centroid points, and x-y coordinates for the district center. This geographic information is based on the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with longitude presented first, followed by latitude, offering potential for geospatial data analytics.

The table also contains columns for the district's names in different languages, and a unique identifier for each district. Furthermore, there is a column indicating the year, which could be used for understanding changes over time.

This table could be utilized in various ways in data analytics. For example, the geographic data could be used for visualizing district boundaries on a map and studying spatial relationships. The temporal data could be leveraged to identify trends or changes in regional data over time. Moreover, the linguistic data could support multilingual analysis or localization efforts.
