Introduction In the digital age, data is often collected from multiple sources, leading to variability in formats, standards, and quality. Data harmonisation addresses these issues by transforming disparate data into a cohesive dataset, enabling better analysis, insights, and decision-making. It is essential for organisations looking to leverage their data assets across diverse systems and platforms. Data harmonisation involves several key steps: preparing, transforming, and validating data. Additionally, it’s built on a foundation of best practices that ensure the integrity, accuracy, and usability of the harmonised data.
