Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 96 rows came out of a blueprint — 24 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.

Rules it was built with
  • Each row represents a unique vendor and quarterly reporting period.
  • Emissions data must be reported in CO2-equivalent metric tons.
  • Vendors are flagged if missing environmental compliance certificates.
  • Waste management score is required for vendors handling physical goods.
  • Vendors scoring below a sustainability threshold are tagged for review.
