Version History of Major Regions in 2013 (1:1 000 000 Scale)
The 'table__history' is a valuable resource that captures the version history of its base table rows. This table belongs to the dataset collection 'tilastointialueet_suuralue1000k_2013', which provides a wealth of information about the 'Large Areas 2013' at a scale of 1:1 000 000. The data in this table is sourced from the Finnish Statistics Bureau (Tilastokeskus) website, making it a reliable source for researchers and data analysts.
The table is unique in its structure as it incorporates specific columns that provide insights into the extraction and version history of each row. These special columns include the 'start date' and 'end date', which respectively indicate when the row was extracted from the data source and when a new version of the row was extracted. Furthermore, each row in this version history table is uniquely identified by a combination of the 'start date' and a 'row number'.
The table also contains geographical information, presented using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system. This data, which resides in columns starting with 'geom_', allows for geospatial data analytics. For instance, the 'geom_center_x' and 'geom_center_y' columns represent the geographical coordinates of the center of each area.
The table's content is versatile and can be used for a variety of analytical purposes. For instance, the version history data could be used to track changes in the geographical data over time. This could provide insights into how these areas have evolved, which could be valuable for urban planning or environmental studies. Additionally, the geographical data could be used for geospatial analyses, such as identifying patterns or trends in the spatial distribution of the areas. Finally, the table could be used to compare different versions of the data, which could be useful for quality control or data validation purposes.
Field Descriptions
Name | Data type | Description |
---|---|---|
_start_date | date | This column indicates the date when the row was extracted from the data source. It is part of a combination with '_row_number' that uniquely identifies each row in this version history table. |
_end_date | date | This column contains the date when a new version of the row was extracted from the data source. If the value of this column is null, it means that the row is the most recent version. |
_row_number | long | This column contains the number of the row in the raw data extracted from the data source. It is part of a combination with '_start_date' that uniquely identifies each row in this version history table. |
