Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 51 rows came out of a blueprint — 15 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 one equipment operation session.
- Emission calculation must consider equipment type and fuel source.
- Seasonal usage patterns impact emission values.
- All equipment IDs must be unique across the dataset.
- Include only active farm equipment (no retired assets).
