Summary

We’ve covered a lot of ground in this chapter! The basics of visualizing maps are straightforward, but there is a lot of power and possibility behind the scenes. From using your own geospatial data to leveraging geospatial objects and functions and potentially layering a lot of information on a single map, you have a lot of analytical options. Creating custom territories and plotting data on background images expand your possibilities even further.

Next, we’ll introduce some capabilities that greatly expand the functionality of Tableau. In fact, you’ll even write your own code in Python, R, and JavaScript and see the power of Einstein to extend your analytics, dashboards, and interactivity to a whole new level!
