In this tip, I show you how I create a hexbin map in Tableau. But first, I explain the purpose, benefits and drawback of a hexbin map.
This video is going to help you communicate the concentration of data on maps more effectively and give you another option for visualizing geospatial data. I’ll show you how to create a hexbin map based on both the value and the rank, giving you two options depending on your use case.

🌎I run a lot of Tableau geospatial training sessions and never knew Hexbining was this easy! Thanks Andy! Can't wait to incorporate this into my training sessions 🗺

Have fun!

A friend of mine directed me to your videos as a resource for Tableau and it was some of the best advice I've ever been given. Love learning from you! Thank you! 🙂

⚡Coming from a GIS background to BI analytics, I never imagined this was possible in Tableau :D Thank you for the awesome tutorial!

I never thought Hexbin Map would be so easy and the concept before creating it was really helpful... Thanks, Andy again for the informative video. If you can incorporate these 'when to use and when not to use ' segment for all your videos it will be really helpful... 🙂❄

👏 great tutorial, thanks for sharing. I like this format with some introductory use case examples before diving into how to create them. And then it helped me remember the core stages in the process by having a second example too.

@vizwiz 2 года назад

That’s great to hear. Thanks for the feedback. I’ll give it a go again next week.

Andy, great video. 😎would love to hear a discussion of this method where you have an original set of lat,lon data versus when you create a hex map using a self defined set of coordinates (like when you want a map of the US with AK and HI nearby) would like to hear more about each of these cases.

@vizwiz 2 года назад

😎 good question! I see them as different use cases. In the latter, you are predefining the location of each mark. The hexbin method allows you to be more prescriptive with how any marks you show and it also put the marks closer to where they truly are geographically.

@philipadams4030 2 года назад

Thanks for explaining the usage do’s and don’ts in the beginning of the video Andy! I am working on analyzing and visualizing our Home and Auto insurance customer retention based on the premium by on CBSA. I am going to try this out and send you a screen capture 🤩 Do you have this workbook on Tableau Public? I was going to download shapes from it. ☺️

@vizwiz 2 года назад

Thanks for pointing that out. I've added it to the description. Here you go - public.tableau.com/app/profile/andy.kriebel/viz/HowtoCreateaHexbinMapinTableau/Title

@user-kt6xb5cg4b Год назад

Hi Andy, Thanks for the video, its super helpful! I tried using the same methodology to create my hexbin map. But I ran into some problems after using hexbins. (1) I tried to filter a crosstab using filter actions (by selecting the hexbins on hexbin map worksheet) , it resulted in having null values in a separate crosstab (for some of the hexbins) . If i display the same measures as the crosstab as tooltip in the hexbin map worksheet, all the measures will appear without errors. (2) Using the same action filter , I tried to perform a LOD calculation using hex bin x and hex bin y. The LOD calculations return unexpected numbers. Not sure if you encounter similar issues before?

What if Longitude and Latitude are not already on the dataset and are automatically generated by Tableau? I want to visualize a global map but I can't find any shape file.

@vizwiz Год назад

Unfortunately those built in lat/lon cannot be used in calculations.

@btadams250 2 года назад

Andy, where do you get your custom shapes from?

@vizwiz 2 года назад

I tend to get there on this website. jrgraphix.net/r/Unicode/25A0-25FF

Great to learn this Andy..could u plz tell what is the Adjuster parameter doing here or could u just tell on that

@vizwiz 2 года назад

The parameter allows you to adjust the number of hexagons so that you can get it to look the way you’d like.

@ClintBondKS 2 года назад

Does it work if the Latt and Long are system generated? Or only if they are native in the data?

@vizwiz 2 года назад

Native to the data. You can’t use tableau’s automatically generated fields in calculations.

@johnz.4799 2 года назад

Thanks for the video, but how to generate longtitude and latitude attribute? My data source doesn't have these two attributes. thanks

@vizwiz 2 года назад

You need them to use this for geographic data. It’s also possible to do this with a scatterplot.

@johnz.4799 2 года назад

@@vizwiz Thank you. I will figure out alternatives.

I have never built one, but here are two methods from some of my Data School consultants. www.thedataschool.co.uk/gwilym-lockwood/coxcomb-charts-alteryx-tableau-one-stop-blog-shop/ m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iFQMefl1vII.html

@alaingrignon 2 года назад

🧐 is it possible to build these using an other known geographic identity like postal code (Zipcode) which doesn't have an X or Y?

@vizwiz 2 года назад

🧐 you must have lat/lon in the data set. However, if you put zip code on your map, select all records in the view, export the data, you get the lat/lon of each zip code.
