Column reference

Columns may be empty when data is withheld, redacted, or the lookup failed. One row per domain; header on line 1.

How to read this schema

The exported columns are intentionally practical rather than aspirational. They describe what was preserved in the release, including collection source and collection outcome, so users can build filters and quality checks without guessing how missing values should be interpreted.

If you are deciding whether the dataset matches your workflow, read this page together with Methodology. The schema tells you what is present; the methodology page explains why some fields are sparse and why that sparsity is analytically meaningful.
