Sometimes, one has to defy the laws of geography for the sake of aesthetics... π
In this example, I use @qgis to move Hawaii, Alaska (also scaled to 40%) & Puerto Rico... This way, I can create a map of US in one worksheet in @tableau.
Helpful?

The response to my @TableauPublic map of Kyoto's cherry blossom sites has been overwhelming! Thank you so much!π
Just some random thoughts on how it (accidentally) came together... layer by layer.
#RandomQGIStoTableauStuff #21
And ICYI, the map was created in one sheet in @TableauPublic, with the help of @QGIS in prepping & manipulating the data.
New #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff post coming soon... hopefully...
San Diego Downtown deconstructed...π
Still a work in progress... I think I got the workflow down, but I've been looking at it way too long...
Does it look 3D or 3D-ish? Feedback greatly appreciated!π
@TableauPublic #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff
For a recent map I designed - after an unhelpful Google search - I figured out a way to extract just the internal border lines (no coastlines) in @QGIS...
...which I think resulted in a cleaner map in @TableauPublic
Here's my 20th #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff / #RQTS thread:
This past week, I designed a map of the historic flows of a section of the Yellowstone River... using @geo_coe's tutorial on creating REM's w/ @QGIS
I wanted to share my workaround since @TableauPublic can't handle raster data (directly).

Here's my final map visualizing the historic flows of the Yellowstone River in @TableauPublic!
Let me know what you thinkπ

ICYI, here's how I did the "ice effect" for my Rideau Canal Skateway viz. I created 12 different internal buffer layers (in @QGIS) and played w/ the color & opacity (@TableauPublic). #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff
And FYI, my earlier post on water lines: https://t.co/ns2sXAoVSb
New viz/map re Ottawa's Rideau Canal Skateway, the world's largest skating rink.
Due to weather, it didn't open last winter & unfortunately, trends suggest both later & shorter seasons in the future.
Hoping for better this winter!ππ₯ΆβΈοΈπ

At the start of the year, I started #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff, a small project showcasing some ways one can use @QGIS to enhance their map designs in @TableauPublic.

@tableau @consult_ant @CMJCallahan @WJSutton12 @DatavizChimdi @AdrianZinovei @SportingVizBen @brrosenau @jreevers5 @trebor_rolyat Great stuff #Datafam!
And thank you so much for featuring my #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff thread on creating a circular map!π
Here's the unrolled thread: https://t.co/lPFa47femE
And here's the workbook: https://t.co/cQjZ8eyd14
Hope you found this helpful... Thanks for reading! Cheers!

Hey #DataFam, here's a quick post on how you can create a circular map in @TableauPublic, using a circle drawn in @QGIS.
Basic steps:
1. Draw/create circle map layer
2. Clip your desired geographies to the circle
3. Create your map
#RandomQGIStoTableauStuff no. 18
Do your readers know what/where you're mapping? Adding a small locator map can help to provide some geographic context.
But in @TableauPublic, it is challenging to scale maps accurately... One option is to draw a shape in @QGIS...
...this is #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff no. 17! π
@Candice_Che @priyankadobhal_ @sarahlovesdata No problem! But I would be remiss if I didn't mention there's a #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff way also.π
I wanted to briefly go into how I created a Lego-style map of Canada... The map basically consists of multiple layers of the point grid (created in @QGIS) & visualized as squares/circles in @TableauPublic.
Let's get started... #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff #16 π§΅
Just playing around on a Friday... here's a Lego-style map of Canada and its provinces, visualized in @TableauPublic. Grid layers created/prepared in @QGIS.

During #DataPride Month (June), you may have noticed Ε Γ‘rka Meer's great "Love is Love..." viz & probably wondered how one might create that cool dot map in @QGIS & visualize it in @TableauPublic...
You're in luck! Here's #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff #15! π

Thank you so much @_CJMayes πfor the opportunity to share my love of maps ... showcasing #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff & some of my work... and the challenge of having to write in complete sentences.π
I've been really impressed by @professorkao ability to design incredible maps in Tableau. Learn more about how it's done in this guest tutorial!

Dorling cartograms - a la Prof @dannydorling - are another type of cartogram which uses proportional circles to depict areas.
Here's one way to create them @QGIS & visualize them @TableauPublic. This time, we will use a 3rd tool!

For #RandomQGIStoTableauStuff No. 13, let's take a look at:
CARTOGRAMS... maps that distort/resize geographic features based on a measure. Great examples at @worldmapper.
With the "cartogram3" plugin in @QGIS, it's quite simple to create them & then visualize in @TableauPublic.

Shaded Boundary Lines(?)
Actually IDK what they're called, but you may have noticed the multicolored shadings along each country's boundaries a la @NatGeo maps... That!
Here's a how-to create the data in @QGIS & visualize in @tableaupublic:
