InfoSum's Global Schema defines a standard set of categories and keys, which can be used to compare datasets from diverse original sources.

Generally, raw datasets will use different column names and formats, even when they're referring to the same concept. 

As part of the process of normalizing your dataset, you tell InfoSum Platform how to convert your original data to match the Global Schema. Because all datasets go through this process, they end up compatible with each other - even if their original schemas were different.
