Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 182 rows came out of a blueprint — 17 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 tower's hourly reading
  • Include meter ID, tower location, energy usage (kWh), and device status
  • Flag readings exceeding 10% of monthly baseline as anomalies
  • Exclude towers with less than 95% device uptime in the previous week
  • Include temperature and humidity data for environmental correlation
  • Missing readings are marked with 'NaN' and flagged for maintenance follow-up
