  1. Not started, Which airport codes will break the schedule join?Data qualityAnswers

    Audit a registry's identifiers before they become a join key: missing, malformed and duplicated codes, and positions that are only approximate.

    Data ManagementbeginnerDifficulty: beginner130 XP~25 min5 checks

    You hand in your answers as values.

    Dataset

    • World airports · Point · 893 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Find nulls, duplicates and malformed values in an identifier column
    • Distinguish a key defect from a position defect
    • Report counts the integration can be sized against

  2. Not started, Accept the rasters, or send them backData qualityAnswers

    The checks a data manager runs on delivered rasters before anyone analyses them: extent, nodata, value range, and whether the figures are plausible for the place.

  3. Not started, When the attributes and the geometry disagreeData qualityAnswers

    A reference gazetteer carries a latitude and a longitude column beside its geometry. Audit how far apart they are, and what else does not add up.

    You hand in your answers as values.

    Dataset

    • Populated places · Point · 1,251 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Compare each feature's geometry to the coordinate attributes it carries
    • Count the disagreements at two thresholds and identify the worst
    • Find keys the downstream spreadsheet cannot distinguish

  4. Not started, Which ports in the registry are the same port?Data qualityAnswers

    Find probable duplicates in a facility registry by combining a name match with a distance rule — and separate them from the honest homonyms.

    You hand in your answers as values.

    Dataset

    • Ports · Point · 1,081 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Find repeated identifiers in a registry
    • Combine an attribute match with a spatial rule to separate duplicates from homonyms
    • Size the missing attribute that would resolve the rest
