This dataset documents findings form a survey on the status quo of data quality assurance practices at research data repositories.

The personalized online survey was conducted among repositories indexed in re3data in 2021. It covered the scope of the repository, types of data quality assessment, quality criteria, responsibilities, details of the review process, and data quality information, and yielded 332 complete responses.

The dataset comprises a documentation file, the data file, a codebook, and the survey instrument.

The documentation file (documentation.pdf) outlines details of the survey design and administration, survey response, and data processing. The data file (01_survey_data.csv) contains all 332 complete responses to 19 survey questions, fully anonymized. The codebook (02_codebook.csv) describes the variables, and the survey instrument (03_survey_instrument.pdf) comprises the questionnaire that was distributed to survey participants.

PurposeThe aim of this study was to compare the functional characteristics of two computer-based systems for quality control of cancer registry data through analysis of their output differences.MethodsThe study used cancer incidence data from 22 of the 49 registries of the Italian Network of Cancer Registries registered between 1986 and 2017. Two different data checking systems developed by the WHO International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the Joint Research Center (JRC) with the European Network of Cancer Registries (ENCR) and routinely used by registrars were used to check the quality of the data. The outputs generated by the two systems on the same dataset of each registry were analyzed and compared.ResultsThe study included a total of 1,305,689 cancer cases. The overall quality of the dataset was high, with 86% (81.7-94.1) microscopically verified cases and only 1.3% (0.03-3.06) cases with a diagnosis by death certificate only. The two check systems identified a low percentage of errors (JRC-ENCR 0.17% and IARC 0.003%) and about the same proportion of warnings (JRC-ENCR 2.79% and IARC 2.42%) in the dataset. Forty-two cases (2% of errors) and 7067 cases (11.5% of warnings) were identified by both systems in equivalent categories. 11.7% of warnings related to TNM staging were identified by the JRC-ENCR system only. The IARC system identified mainly incorrect combination of tumor grade and morphology (72.5% of warnings).ConclusionBoth systems apply checks on a common set of variables, but some variables are checked by only one of the systems (for example, checks on patient follow-up and tumor stage at diagnosis are included by the JRC-ENCR system only). Most errors and warnings were categorized differently by the two systems, but usually described the same issues, with warnings related to “morphology” (JRC-ENCR) and “histology” (IARC) being the most frequent. It is important to find the right balance between the need to maintain high standards of data quality and the workability of such systems in the daily routine of the cancer registry.

This data record contains questions and responses to a USGS-wide survey conducted to identify issues and needs associated with quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) of USGS timeseries data streams. This research was funded by the USGS Community for Data Integration as part of a project titled “From reactive- to condition-based maintenance: Artificial intelligence for anomaly predictions and operational decision-making”. The poll targeted monitoring network managers and technicians and asked questions about operational data streams and timeseries data collection in order to identity opportunities to streamline data access, expedite the response to data quality issues, improve QA/QC procedures, reduce operations costs, and uncover other maintenance needs. The poll was created using an online survey platform. It was sent to 2326 systematically selected USGS email addresses and received 175 responses in 11 days before it was closed to respondents. The poll contained 48 questions of various types including long answer, multiple choice, and ranking questions. The survey contained a mix of mandatory and optional questions.

Developing software test code can be as or more expensive than developing software production code. Commonly, developers use automated unit test generators to speed up software testing. The purpose of such tools is to shorten production time without decreasing code quality. Nonetheless, unit tests usually do not have a quality check layer above testing code, which might be hard to guarantee the quality of the generated tests. An emerging strategy to verify the tests quality is to analyze the presence of test smells in software test code. Test smells are characteristics in the test code that possibly indicate weaknesses in test design and implementation. The presence of test smells in unit test code could be used as an indicator of unit test quality. In this paper, we present an empirical study aimed to analyze the quality of unit test code generated by automated test tools. We compare the tests generated by two tools (Randoop and EvoSuite) with the existing unit test suite of open-source software projects. We analyze the unit test code of twenty-one open-source Java projects and detected the presence of nineteen types of test smells. The results indicated significant differences in the unit test quality when comparing data from both automated unit test generators and existing unit test suites.

Groundwater samples were collected and analyzed from 1,015 wells as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Project of the U.S. Geological Survey National Water-Quality Program and the water-quality data and quality-control data are included in this data release. The samples were collected from three types of well networks: principal aquifer study networks, which are used to assess the quality of groundwater used for public water supply; land-use study networks, which are used to assess land-use effects on shallow groundwater quality; and major aquifer study networks, which are used to assess the quality of groundwater used for domestic supply. Groundwater samples were analyzed for a large number of water-quality indicators and constituents, including nutrients, major ions, trace elements, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, radionuclides, and microbial indicators. Data from samples collected between 2012 and 2019 are associated with networks described in a collection of data series reports and associated data releases (Arnold and others, 2016a,b, 2017a,b, 2018a,b, 2020a,b; Kingsbury and others, 2020 and 2021).

The ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) mission measures the temperature of plants to better understand how much water plants need and how they respond to stress. ECOSTRESS is attached to the International Space Station (ISS) and collects data globally between 52 degrees N and 52 degrees S latitudes. The ECO3ANCQA Version 1 is a Level 3 (L3) product that provides Quality Assessment (QA) fields for all ancillary data used in L3 and Level 4 (L4) products generated by Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). No quality flags are generated for the L3 or L4 products. Instead, the quality flags of the source data products are resampled by nearest neighbor onto the geolocation of the ECOSTRESS scene. A quality flag array for each input dataset, when available, is collected into the combined QA product.The ECO3ANCQA Version 1 data product contains variables of quality flags for ECOSTRESS cloud mask, Landsat 8, land cover type, albedo, MODIS Terra aerosol, MODIS Terra Cloud 1 km, MODIS Terra Cloud 5 km, MODIS Terra atmospheric profile, vegetation indices, MODIS Terra gross primary productivity, and MODIS water mask.Known Issues Data acquisition gaps: ECOSTRESS was launched on June 29, 2018, and moved to autonomous science operations on August 20, 2018, following a successful in-orbit checkout period. On September 29, 2018, ECOSTRESS experienced an anomaly with its primary mass storage unit (MSU). ECOSTRESS has a primary and secondary MSU (A and B). On December 5, 2018, the instrument was switched to the secondary MSU and science operations resumed. On March 14, 2019, the secondary MSU experienced a similar anomaly temporarily halting science acquisitions. On May 15, 2019, a new data acquisition approach was implemented and science acquisitions resumed. To optimize the new acquisition approach TIR bands 2, 4 and 5 are being downloaded. The data products are as previously, except the bands not downloaded contain fill values (L1 radiance and L2 emissivity). This approach was implemented from May 15, 2019, through April 28, 2023. Data acquisition gap: From February 8 to February 16, 2020, an ECOSTRESS instrument issue resulted in a data anomaly that created striping in band 4 (10.5 micron). These data products have been reprocessed and are available for download. No ECOSTRESS data were acquired on February 17, 2020, due to the instrument being in SAFEHOLD. Data acquired following the anomaly have not been affected.* Data acquisition: ECOSTRESS has now successfully returned to 5-band mode after being in 3-band mode since 2019. This feature was successfully enabled following a Data Processing Unit firmware update (version 4.1) to the payload on April 28, 2023. To better balance contiguous science data scene variables, 3-band collection is currently being interleaved with 5-band acquisitions over the orbital day/night periods.

This is a simulated dataset for an AB test use case on the eCommerce website. The test ran for almost 16 days. Each row of the dataset represent a unique user.

Data Quality check is a very important step for any AB test as it can invalidate any result or conclusion you might make if the dataset is biased. While doing AB test analysis, a lot of people forget about doing the necessary data quality check and just assume that the data is correct and just conclude the result. It has very serious consequences as one can simply recommend the wrong version of the variation to launch which can hurt the revenue of the company. This dataset encourages to identify different techniques to find data quality issue.
