A week late (again), but here is my #MakeoverMonday for Week 49. Inspiration by the incredible Meera Umasankar. Updated 12/14/2019: Per feedback from Eva Murray, Sarah Bartlett, Charlie Hutcheson, and Meera Umasankar, I changed the background color from the LOUD blue to a lighter gray. I also added a sub-title over the line chart stating […]
This week I decided I wanted to experiment with Shapes in Tableau. I cannot help but think of big bags of money when I think of politics these days. I went to the Noun Project and found a bag of money with the UK Pound Sterling image. I showed the bags of money, the amounts […]
This week I decided I wanted to experiment with Slope Charts. The slope chart is the line chart’s fraternal twin. Line charts display three or more points in time while slope charts display exactly two points in time. Defined by Edward Tufte in his 1983 book The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, this type of […]
I am slowly catching up on my #MakeoverMonday entries. San Francisco is one of my favorite cities. I recently saw a news special about this particular issue, and it frustrates me that this is happening to the elderly and poor. San Francisco housing and rental rates are ridiculously high, and if there is money to […]
So, this week presented some challenges for me. We moved over the weekend and I was without Internet for a few days. I don’t know which was more painful: moving after 20 years or not having Internet for 3 days. I have been wanting to create a dataviz using a Waffle Chart for a while. […]
I just completed my #MakeOverMonday 2019.33 entry. It is done, but there is so much more I could have (and should have) done. Time is not on my side this week. Here is the link to it on Tableau Public. The next few weeks are going to be very hectic for me as we are […]
I just completed my #MakeOverMonday 2019.31 entry. Here is the link to it on Tableau Public. NOTE: I accidentally deleted this post while creating my post for Week 32. This was my experiment with a Hexbin Map. I really was not using Christmas colors; I was trying to use Orange and Light Grey. Not sure […]
I just completed my #MakeOverMonday 2019.32 entry. Here is the link to it on Tableau Public. The next few weeks are going to be very hectic for me as we are moving after 20 years of living in our house. It is both exciting and sad at the same time. But, I am committed to […]
I just completed my #MakeOverMonday 2019.30 entry. Here is the link to it on Tableau Public. Kept it simple this week. Adding all the player head-shot images and country flag images was a bit of a pain, but I eventually prevailed. Attribution to Luca Urzi ( @LucaUrzi) at The Information Lab Italia. Luca’s Tableau Public […]
I just completed my #MakeOverMonday 2019.29 entry. Here is the link to it on Tableau Public. Super focused this week. I knew what I wanted to do and found the inspiration in the NYC Rat Sightings Tableau Public workbook created by Brian Graves (@NewPrediction). You can see Brian’s workbook by clicking here. I also give […]
