TABLEAU GEO JSON

Tableau does support using Geo JSON data for creating maps and visualizations, although the support might have evolved since then. Here’s a general overview of how you might use Geo JSON data in Tableau:

1. Data Source Setup: To use Geo JSON data in Tableau, you typically start by connecting to your Geo JSON file as a data source. You can do this when linking to your data by selecting “Geo JSON” as the file type.
2. Mapping: After connecting to the Geo JSON data, you can use the geographic fields in your dataset to create maps. Tableau will recognize the geographic attributes (such as latitude, longitude, polygons, etc.) and allow you to plot them on a map.
3. Visualizations: You can then create various visualizations on the map, such as scatter plots, heat maps, polygons, and custom shapes, using the geographic data from the Geo JSON file. Tableau provides many tools and options to customize your map visualizations.
4. Interactivity: One of Tableau’s strengths is its interactivity. You can create filters, actions, and parameters that allow users to interact with the map and other elements on your dashboard.
5. Dashboard Creation: Once you’ve created your map visualization, you can incorporate it into a more extensive dashboard that might include other charts, graphs, and filters, all interacting to provide a comprehensive view of your data.
