DataCollectionTechniques
StructuredData
Organizedinpre-definedformat.Usuallystoredindatabases orspreadsheets.
Examples:SQLdatabases,CSVfiles,Excelspreadsheets
UnstructuredData
Nopre-definedformat.Requiresspecializedprocessingto extractvalue.
Examples:Textdocuments,images,videos,socialmedia posts
Stage3:DataCleaning
IdentifyIssues
Detectmissingvalues,outliers,andinconsistenciesinthedataset.
ApplySolutions
Imputemissingdata,filteroutliers,standardizeformatsacrossall fields.
ValidateResults
Ensurecleaningoperationsmaintaindataintegrityand usefulness.
