Dirty Data?: dfPower Studio to the Rescue!
Overview The most challenging aspect of migrating legacy data into a new system is cleaning up years of data entry inconsistencies. DataFlux's dfPower Studio provides the tools to meet this challenge. The HIV/AIDS Reporting System (HARS) captures data to monitor the HIV/AIDS epidemic, including names and locations of facilities of diagnosis and treatment. Each record may contain up to five different facility entries. Before migrating to the new system, these data must be cleaned. In order to standardize across all five sets of facility fields in a single pass, a SAS data set is created containing one record per unique facility entry. dfPower Studio is then used to create and apply a standardization scheme to each facility entry record.
