Data/GIS: Introduction to Tableau Public 8

Tableau Public (currently in Version 8) is free software that allows individuals to quickly create interactive visualizations of their research and business analytics data. This workshop will focus on using Tableau Public 8 to create data visualizations, starting with an overview of the structure of the program and the terminology used. The workshop will include a sample data visualization project, focusing especially on some of the new features in Tableau Public 8. We will also discuss publishing to the Tableau Public web server and related services and tools, like the full Tableau Desktop application and the recently released Tableau Online.
