Description
Dirty data can have serious consequences for businesses, costing them thousands or even millions of pounds every year. This problem is often discussed in terms of its impact, but rarely addressed in terms of solutions.
Between the Spreadsheets: Classifying and Fixing Dirty Data offers a practical approach to cleaning and classifying data, drawing on the author's decade of experience in data classification. The book covers essential topics such as normalisation, taxonomies, and presents a proven methodology for ensuring data is consistent, organised, accurate, and trustworthy.
By reading this book, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the dangers of dirty data and develop the skills to work with it more efficiently and effectively. A series of case studies highlights the consequences of poor data management and provides guidance on how to fix common problems.
