← Back to Home Hurricane Season in 2012 - Lab 9 - Part 2 In the second part of lab 9, we created a temporally animated map displaying the hurricane season of 2012. To better organize and visualize our results, we made a dashboard in Tableau. In the dashboard, the map is the main focus of the dashboard, with a title and description at the top. I put all of the data filters on the right side of the dashboard as well as data credits and author information at the bottom right. In the data filters, the most important one is the ISO time filter which allows you to scroll with the time chart or simply hit the play buttom to have the time series go.

There is an embedded video down below to show the map actually animated because Tableau public does not allow it natively. Ryan Facks ...

Each map key-frame is 10 years (one decade) apart from each other and we made it so the animation has is symbolized on a yellow to orange symbology.

I used my middle mouse button to create a isometric view of the state of Illinois to better capture the 3D aspect of this. I oriented it so that Chicago was in the "top" of the map because I knew that the population "tower" would be far taller than any of the other counties and I did not want to block them. Again, we used the same yellow to orang...
