Effective Measurement of DQ/IQ for BI

DQ/IQ measurement in general and in the specific context of BI has always been a topic of high interest for researchers. The topic of Data Quality (DQ) in the field of Information Management has been well researched, published, and studied. Despite such research advances, there has been very little understanding either from a theoretical or from a practical perspective of DQ/IQ measurement for BI. Assessing the quality of data for a BI System has been one of the major challenges for researchers as well as practitioners, leading to the need for frameworks to measure DQ for BI. The objective of this chapter is to provide an overview of the existing frameworks for measurement of DQ for BI, analyze the gaps therein, review proposed solutions, and provide a direction for future research and practice in this area.
