Introduction to the Data Standardization Course2:03
Data standardization transforms existing data into a consistent format and values for analysis. It improves accuracy and enables meaningful comparisons across sources using IDs.
Impact of Data Standardization2:34
Apply data standardization by organizing menus into clear categories, like pizza shop items, to improve customer experience and business efficiency.
Aspects of Data Standardization7:25
Explore the key aspects of data standardization, including format consistency, categorical standardization, missing values, normalization, abbreviations and acronyms, and alignment with industry standards and data exchange formats.

Frameworks of Data Standardization0:38
explore data standardization frameworks, covering data wrangling, orchestration, blending, cleaning, transformation, integration, and enrichment, and learn market standards and best practices.
Data Wrangling2:49
Learn data wrangling techniques to clean, align, and enrich data, apply a data standardization framework to standardize formats, fix time and currency fields, and rearrange columns for ready-to-analyze data.
Data Standardization3:09
Standardize data by converting formats into a unified universal format, ensuring consistent data types and values across currency, units, and measurements so the dataset uses kilograms, liters, and packs.
Data Orchestration2:55
Standardize information through data orchestration by arranging order data, order items, and inventory in a logical sequence to support business operations.
Data Blending2:12
Merge sales data and customer feedback using order id to enable analysis of sales and customer experience, illustrating data modeling and data blending.
Data Cleaning2:15
Fix data errors across headers, items, and formatting, address missing values, and convert date fields from text to proper formats to enable reliable analysis of raw sales data.
Data Transformation1:43
Practice data transformation by selecting only the necessary columns from raw data—pizza type, quantity, and total sales—to create a streamlined transformed order dataset for analysis.
Data Integration and Data Enrichment4:19
Master data integration and enrichment by merging online and in-store sales data into a unified view, and derive city, state, and zip code for enhanced analysis.

Types of Data Standardization and General Data Standards10:42
Explore industry data standardization practices, including ISO metadata standards and the data documentation initiative. See how data elements and codes, like pizza types and order IDs, enable scalable data management.
Demo of Data Standardization for General Data Standardization frameworks3:38
Demonstrates standardizing a non standardized data set with a general data standardization approach, converting items and orders to codes and using zip codes to derive city information.
Demo of Complex Data Standardization11:44
Demonstrate standardizing complex survey data by removing empty columns, renaming headers, normalizing gender and influencing factors, and splitting multi-value responses into rows using Power Query.
