Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 80 rows came out of a blueprint — 21 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 volunteer may participate in multiple projects, but only one assignment per day.
- Impact metrics (e.g., people served, resources distributed) must be recorded for every completed shift.
- Scheduling conflicts are flagged if volunteers are double-booked.
- Volunteer hours are validated against organization policies (minimum and maximum per week).
- Projects are categorized by type (e.g., health, education, environment) for reporting.
