Now that you know what you want to accomplish with data, you can use that as a framework for choosing the right dataset. We cover the strengths, weaknesses, and costs of readily available data sets, including SAVI, so you have the information you need to locate the data that’s right for you.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
- What data sources are readily available
- How to balance your needs and priorities to choose the right dataset
