# Steps involved in data analysis :

Data Analysis is a process of collecting, transforming,


cleaning, and modeling data with the goal of discovering the
required information.

1. Data Requirements Specification


2. Data Collection
3. Data Processing
4. Data Cleaning
5. Data Analysis
6. Communication
# Steps involved in data analysis :

1. Data Requirements Specification: The data required for


analysis is based on a question or an experiment. Based on
the requirements of those directing the analysis, the data
necessary as inputs to the analysis is identified (e.g.,
Population of people). Specific variables regarding a
population (e.g., Age and Income) may be specified and
obtained. Data may be numerical or categorical.

2. Data Collection: Data Collection is the process of gathering


information on targeted variables identified as data requirements.
The emphasis is on ensuring accurate and honest collection of
data. Data Collection ensures that data gathered is accurate such
that the related decisions are valid. Data Collection provides both
a baseline to measure and a target to improve.
# Steps involved in data analysis :

Data is collected from various sources ranging from


organizational databases to the information in web pages.
The data thus obtained, may not be structured and may
contain irrelevant information. Hence, the collected data is
required to be subjected to Data Processing and Data
Cleaning.
3. Data Processing
The data that is collected must be processed or organized
for analysis. This includes structuring the data as required
for the relevant Analysis Tools. For example, the data might
have to be placed into rows and columns in a table within a
Spreadsheet or Statistical Application. A Data Model might
have to be created.

4.Data Cleaning
The processed and organized data may be incomplete, contain duplicates, or
contain errors. Data Cleaning is the process of preventing and correcting
these errors. There are several types of Data Cleaning that depend on the
type of data. For example, while cleaning the financial data, certain totals
might be compared against reliable published numbers or defined
thresholds. Likewise, quantitative data methods can be used for outlier
detection that would be subsequently excluded in analysis.
5.Data Analysis
Data that is processed, organized and cleaned would be ready for the
analysis. Various data analysis techniques are available to understand,
interpret, and derive conclusions based on the requirements. Data
Visualization may also be used to examine the data in graphical format, to
obtain additional insight regarding the messages within the data.
# Steps involved in data analysis :

6.Communication:The results of the data analysis are to be


reported in a format as required by the users to support their
decisions and further action. The feedback from the users might
result in additional analysis.
The data analysts can choose data visualization techniques, such
as tables and charts, which help in communicating the message
clearly and efficiently to the users.
The analysis tools provide facility to highlight the required
information with color codes and formatting in tables and charts.
