2. The tree map displays data in nested rectangles.
The dimensions define the structure of the tree
map and measures define the size or color of the
individual rectangle.
The rectangles are easy to visualize as both the
size and shade of the color of the rectangle reflect
the value of the measure.
A Tree Map is created using one or more
dimension with one or two measures.

3. Use tree maps to display data in nested
rectangles. You use dimensions to define the
structure of the treemap, and measures to define
the size or color of the individual rectangles.
Treemaps are a relatively simple data
visualization that can provide insight in a visually
attractive format.
A tree map is a visualization that nests rectangles
in hierarchies so you can compare different
dimension combinations across one or two
measures (one for size; one for color) and quickly
interpret their respective contributions to the
whole. When used poorly, tree maps are not much
more than an alternative pie chart.
Uses of Tree map

4. Using the Sample-superstore, plan to find the size
of profits for each Ship mode values.
To achieve this objective, following are the steps.
Step 1 − Drag and drop the measure profit two
times to the Marks Card. Once to the Size shelf
and again to the Color shelf.
Step 2 − Drag and drop the dimension ship
mode to the Label shelf. Choose the chart type
Tree Map from Show Me. The following chart
appears.

6. Tree Map with Two Dimensions
You can add the dimension Region to the above
Tree map chart.
Drag and drop it twice. Once to the Color shelf and
again to the Label shelf.
The chart that appears will show four outer boxes
for four regions and then the boxes for ship
modes nested inside them.
All the different regions will now have different
colors.
