Data Cleaning & Visualization Project
Project Title: Sales Data Cleaning and Visualization using Python
Objective: Clean a raw dataset, handle missing values, remove duplicates and outliers, and create
meaningful visualizations to uncover business insights.
Tools & Technologies
Python, Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, Jupyter Notebook
Dataset Sources
Kaggle, UCI Machine Learning Repository
Steps Performed
1. Data Loading using Pandas
2. Data Cleaning: Handle missing values, remove duplicates, and treat outliers.
3. Data Visualization: Create histograms, line charts, and bar charts.
Sample Python Code
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('sales_data.csv')
df.drop_duplicates(inplace=True)
df['Sales'].fillna(df['Sales'].mean(), inplace=True)
Key Findings
• Missing values were handled successfully.
• Duplicate records were removed.
• Outliers were detected and filtered.
• Technology category generated the highest sales.
• Sales peaked during festive seasons.
Dashboard Ideas
• Sales Trend Chart
• Category-wise Sales Analysis
• Region-wise Performance
• Profit vs Sales Comparison
Expected Outcome
