Word clouds are a great way of visualizing text data!
And up until yesterday I had no idea that you could create them in Tableau! Therefore, I was excited to try them out as soon as a suitable analysis request came my way.
Luckily, I didn’t have to wait long! Do you remember the market/segment analysis I did last week? Today, I had a follow-up question on it:
Which are the most important product categories per segment and market?
Deciding to integrate its answer in the workbook I had already created, I proceeded with making the word cloud.
Now, I only had to make sure that the filters applied to my word cloud were the same as the ones applied on my “pie-on-a-map chart”
Now, whenever a user would hover on a segment in a given country, the pie-on-a-map chart would automatically filter the word cloud underneath to show which the most important product categories were for that segment, in that country.
Sweet, no?
