The table contains rich data that provides a detailed insight into the Major Regions of Finland in 2015. The data is sourced from the Statistics Finland (Tilastokeskus) website. Each row in the table represents a unique data entry, which is extracted on a specific date and identified by a unique row number. The data includes the region's name in Finnish, Swedish, and English, along with a unique identifier ('gml_id') for each region.

The table holds geographical data with coordinates in the WGS 84 coordinate reference system. This includes MultiPolygon geographical data, the centroid point of the region, as well as the longitude ('geom_center_x') and latitude ('geom_center_y') of the region's center.

The table also includes the area ('shape_star') and perimeter ('shape_stle') of each region, which can be useful for spatial analysis. Additionally, the table contains a column ('vuosi') which indicates the year the data represents.

This dataset can be used in various ways for data analytics. For instance, the geographical data can be utilized for geospatial analytics to understand the spatial distribution of different regions. The area and perimeter data can be used to analyze the size and shape of each region. The data extraction date and row number can help track the changes in the data over time and ensure the integrity and accuracy of the data source.

In summary, this table serves as a comprehensive source of information on the Major Regions of Finland in 2015, with data that can be used for a variety of analysis and comparisons, including geographical, historical, and statistical analyses.
