For this week’s Viz Review, we ended the session with three demos in 12 minutes (watch the recording here). We started with a makeover of this viz by . The idea here was to simplify the color and the clutter.

Following the makeover of the makeover, Eva wanted me to show how to create a hex map. During the webinar, I noticed someone had mentioned that Joshua Milligan had created a shapefile in Alteryx that you could join the data set to. Read his blog post here. I decided to create two maps then: the first based on Joshua’s template and the second based on this post by Matt Chambers.

These demos are my favorite part of Viz Review. I get to try things really quickly and hopefully everyone learns a thing or two as well; I know I do! Until next week…
