Scaling limitations - dataset with more than 500 fields
  • Ross.Moncur January 6, 2011 5:43PM
    Hi - I have a rather annoying dataset that has 966 fields (columns) in CSV format that I am trying to read into Omniscope (2.6 Okavango edition build 353 alpha).
    Coming up against what I think is a "scaling" problem as Omniscope will only read in 500 columns.

    Is there a setting I can change in Omniscope to enable it to read in more (unlimited???) columns?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Thanks for your question. The setting you are looking for can be found in "Settings>Advanced> Miscellaneous>Limit TSV/CSV imports to 500 fields".

    You may experience performance issues when working with a file of this size, so you might want to consider removing all of the fields you don't need before importing the data. You could use the 'Summarise fields' operation to wrap up all of the fields that are of no analytical benefit into a single field.

    Chris
