Data Quality Management System (DQMS)

The Data Quality working group of the Data Management Association in the Netherlands (DAMA NL), is developing a Data Quality Management System (DQMS) using ISO 9001 as a frame of reference.

ISO 9001 is intended for the quality of products and services in general and is rarely applied to data quality. In order to apply ISO 9001 to data quality, we need to convert the terms of elements used in ISO 9001 to terms that are common in the data domain.

The elements in the data domain may have specific interdependencies, which are shown in the form of connections/links between elements. The interactive visualisation shows elements and their connections with the following functionality:

Hovering the mouse over an element reveals a tooltip with more information about that element.
Clicking on an element toggles on/off all its related elements and links.
Clicking and dragging elements to a new position in case of (partially) overlapping text or elements.
Zooming in/out to specific section of the visualisation using the mouse-wheel.
Panning the visualisation horizontally and vertically using the mouse.
