Verify Data in BigQuery

BigQuery provides a robust toolkit for verifying the trustworthiness of your data. A quick and easy approach involves directly querying the tables through the web interface or command-line tool. This allows you to grab sample sets and visually inspect the data for accuracy. For a more in-depth analysis, BigQuery's Data Quality scans come into play. These automated scans crawl through your data, searching for inconsistencies like missing entries or outliers that deviate significantly from the expected range.

If you require even more granular control, consider using the Data Validation Tool (DVT). This open-source tool empowers you to establish custom validation rules and set up automated checks. With DVT, you can ensure your data consistently meets your quality benchmarks, giving you peace of mind when making data-driven decisions.
