Description
The table under consideration is a detailed compilation of geographic features, obtained from the Swedish website, Lantmäteriet. It carries a wealth of information about various geographic attributes, including unique identifiers, area measurements, remarks, and several aspects of geographic geometry. The geometry data was initially in shapefile format - a standard for simple, non-topological geographic features - but has been processed into its final form in this dataset.
Two special features of the table are the extraction date and row number. The extraction date tells us when each row of data was gathered from its source, while the row number indicates its position in the extracted data. These two columns work together to uniquely identify each row in the table.
This table, with its rich geographic information, has numerous potential applications in data analytics. For example, it could be used in environmental studies to analyze changes in land use over time, based on the extraction dates and geographic features. Urban planners could use it to map and better understand the distribution of different areas in the region. It could also be an important resource for geologists studying the topography and geographical features of specific locations.
