Spatial Data of Major Regions in Finland, 2017 (Scale 1:1 000 000)
The table in question belongs to a dataset collection that comprises related data tables. It is centered around 'Large Areas 2017' (Suuralueet 2017), with data organized into various columns, each bearing a specific meaning and relevance.
Two key columns in the table are '_extract_date' and '_row_number'. The '_extract_date' column details the date when the specific row of data was extracted, while '_row_number' gives the row number in the data extracted. These two columns, taken together, allow each row to be uniquely identified.
Several columns in the table start with 'geom_', indicating they contain geographic information valuable for geospatial data analytics. This includes geographic coordinates, which are given using the WGS 84 coordinate reference system, with the axis order being longitude first, followed by latitude.
Other columns in the table provide additional features, such as names in different languages, identification information, and year of data.
This table, sourced from the website of 'Tilastokeskus' (Statistics Finland) in Finland, can be utilized in many ways in data analytics. For instance, the geographic information can be used to conduct spatial analyses or geographic profiling. The names and identification information can be useful in multilingual data processing or in tracing demographic changes over time. The extraction dates and row numbers allow for tracking data changes and updates over time.
