In today’s data-driven world, fostering a culture that empowers teams to access, analyze, understand, and share insights is critical. This session will explore how Tableau can be used to transform the way USGS data scientists and administrative/IT professionals work with geospatial and analytical data. As a modern, user-friendly alternative to traditional GIS and business intelligence tools, Tableau simplifies complex workflows, enabling teams to focus on actionable insights rather than technical barriers.
Through real-world examples and a hands-on demonstration, participants will learn how Tableau can be used to visualize spatial data, analyze trends, and create dynamic dashboards tailored to scientific research and operational decision-making. We’ll focus on leveraging Tableau’s capabilities to both bridge the gap between technical experts and non-technical public stakeholders and encourage collaboration and transparency across USGS.
