  • Patent number: 11288243
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for assessing data quality of one or more data records. The method is implemented using a quality assessment (QA) computing device. The method includes storing, into a data warehouse, predefined data quality assessment criteria to be applied to the one or more data records to assess the data quality of the one or more data records. The method further includes assessing, by the QA computing device, the one or more data fields of each data record in the one or more views using the assessment criteria, wherein a data quality value is assigned to the one or more data fields based on the data quality.

  • Patent number: 5415113
    Abstract: The present invention is a portable incineration apparatus. The portable incinerator includes a box having four walls with a top and bottom opening. The inside of the walls are lined with a layer of refractory material to form a combustion chamber in combination with the bottom opening which is placed on the ground. A source of high velocity air is in communication with a manifold assembly which is adapted to direct an effective sheet or curtain of high velocity air across the top opening and down into the combustion chamber to maintain a substantially uniform discharge rate of the high velocity air as it exits the manifold assembly along the top opening. The uniform curtain of air over the top opening limits the amount of smoke, ash and other particulate released into the atmosphere during the burning process.
