INTRODUCTION TO DATA VISUALISATION Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. By using visual elements like charts, graphs, maps, and other visual tools, data visualization helps to make complex data more accessible, understandable, and actionable.
IMPORTANCE OF DATA VISUALISATION IMPROVES UNDERSTANDING REVEALS PATTERNS AND TRENDS ENHANCES COMMUNICATION FACILITATES DATA EXPLORATION BETTER DECISION MAKING
DATA VISUALISATION CONSIDERATIONS AESTHETICS INTERACTIVITY REVEALANCE ACCURACY CLARITY AUDIENCE
Data Visualization Factors Simplicity Accessibility Comparability Data Integrity Data Granularity
Types of Data Visualization: Charts : Pie Chart Histogram Bubble Chart Graphs : Scatter Plot Network Graph Tree Map Best Practices for Data Visualization:- Use colors effectively Label and annotate visualizations Avoid 3D and unnecessary complexity- Use interactive visual
ADVANTAGES OF DATA VISUALISATION Simplifies Complex Data Identifies Trends and Patterns Improves Communication Saves Time Enhances Decision Making
DISADVANTAGES OF DATA VISUALISATION Misleading Representations Over Simplification Requires Skill and Knowledge Data Overload
What is Tableau? Tableau is a powerful data visualization tool that helps users turn raw data into interactive and intuitive dashboards Why do we need tableau? Simplifies Data Interpretation Enhances Decision-Making Encourages Data Exploration
FEATURES OF TABLEAU 02 Data Visualization 01 Data Connectivity and Integration 04 Data Management 03 Collaboration and Sharing
Data Types in Tableau Number: Whole numbers, decimals, or percentages. String : Text values, such as names, descriptions, or categories. Date : Dates and times, which can be used to create time-series analysis.

CREATING A NEW DASHBOARD
APPLICATIONS 1.Objective: Let’s take an example of the Superstore data from the Tableau repository. I want to look at the profit earned by each category. Load the data Dimensioned field named Category added to the Columns shelf Measured field named Profit added to the Rows shelf
2.Objective: Let’s take an example of the Superstore data from the Tableau repository. We want to know the average sales in each category. Drag dimension category and measure Sales Right click on the Sales field and select average method Drag the sales field from the canvas area to the label property under the marks shelf
CONCLUSION Data visualization plays a crucial role in data science by transforming complex datasets into intuitive and actionable insights.ableau supports real-time data connections and live updates, making it possible to monitor and respond to changes in data instantly. This is crucial for applications that require up-to-date information for timely decision-making.
