Description
Big data in the form of immense data sets are not helpful in decision-making without some form
of visualization. A picture is worth a thousand words,” definitely rings true in this case. Go to the
Free Public Data Sets for Analysis website. Select any data set that is of interest to you and
download it. The data set should be saved in .CSV format. Scroll to the bottom of the web page
and sign up for a free trial of Tableau. If you are not familiar with Tableau, use the Tableau
Tutorial for Beginners video to get a basic introduction so you can apply the concepts to the data
set you have downloaded. Use the data set you have selected and create a visualization of the
data that can be used to interpret what the data says. Submit your visualization in the form of
screenshots and upload them to the assignment area. Grading will be based on your overall
application of the data visualization.
