Building on last year, I thought I would occasionally share/highlight random stuff you can create w/ @qgis & then visualize w/ @TableauPublic.

#RandomQGIStoTableauStuff #1:

ICYMI @SmilgaNir published a map w/ a cool diagonal X fill.

It's basically a clipped grid shapefile...🧵 Image ...and you can create this in @qgis!

Step 1: Select/copy/paste the desired area to create a temporary scratch layer. In this case, I'm using a shapefile of the five boroughs in New York City & created a new layer of Brooklyn. Image

A few* folks asked about the map in my Street Art in LA @ironviz, but I don't have a blog or video channel.🥴 So here are just a few random thoughts in a thread. I hope it's helpful.

*In my case, that basically means 2 people.🤣

1/8 ImageImage First, check out the blogs on circular maps in Tableau by @vizzingbrocks (via @rajvivan) & @sarahlovesdata. As you may notice, many of my vizzes have maps and for most, I employ the same approach of layering maps & images.
