Data Dictionary

What : A Data Dictionary is like a friendly guidebook


for your data.
It's a list that explains what each piece of data means,
how it's formatted, and how it's used in a project or
analysis

Why: We need a Data Dictionary to ensure everyone


understands the meaning, format, and purpose of
each piece of data.
