Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 88 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.
- Each row represents a unique waste stream per facility per month.
- Waste types must be classified as hazardous, recyclable, or general.
- Quantities are recorded in kilograms and rounded to one decimal place.
- Compliance status is automatically flagged based on latest local regulations.
- Facility must be associated with geographic region and process type.
