Dirty data is a problem that costs businesses thousands, if not millions, every year. And with the increasing use of AI and Generative AI, it's only getting worse. In organizations large and small across the globe you will hear talk of data quality issues. What you will rarely hear about is the consequences or best practices on how to fix it.
Fully revised and updated throughout, this new edition of Between the Spreadsheets draws on classification expert Susan Walsh's years of hands-on experience in data to present a fool-proof method for cleaning and classifying your data. The book covers everything from the very basics of data classification to normalization and taxonomies, and presents the author's proven COAT framework, helping ensure an organization's data is Consistent, Organized, Accurate, and Trustworthy. A series of data horror stories outlines what can go wrong in managing data, and if it does, how it can be fixed as well as new advice on using GenAI and why it is so important to have clean data before using it.
