which aim to provide available, accessible, and reusable data for the public, free of charge. The open data_x000D_
potentially can provide great return from public investment. However, to make such platforms beneficial, the_x000D_
data should be readily consumable. Unfortunately, the current platforms mostly contain a vast variety of_x000D_
datasets, but with little help to get higher-level insights (e.g., where in downtown Calgary would be a good_x000D_
location to open up a coffee shop). To fill this gap companies such as LocalIntel Inc. provide analytics services_x000D_
on top of open data platforms. To help LocalIntel expand their products range to work with municipalities of_x000D_
all sizes with diffident formats of data and use cases, this project proposes a) a preprocessing phase that_x000D_
converts any municipality data to a standard format and b) to automatically validate the new datasets and verify_x000D_
the software with respect to the changes the input data., program purpose french : In recent years, most public organizations publish their raw data on the Internet under "open data platforms",_x000D_
