Tableau is a modern tool for Data Visualisation. As of 01-Aug-2019, Tableau has been acquired by Salesforce. It is developed by Researchers who specialised in Visualisation Techniques for exploring and analysing Relational Databases and Data Cubes. Tableau products query relational databases, online analytical processing cubes, cloud databases, and spreadsheets to generate graph-type data visualisations. The products can also extract, store, and retrieve data from an in-memory data engine. Tableau software is available as a Desktop version and as an Online version.

This is an Introductory Course on Tableau. This course explore all the needed Basics of using Tableau from getting the software, installing it, loading data and creating Data Visualisation. The course discusses various Data Visualisations possible using Tableau through an example.

The course also delves into some advanced topics like reorganising data using R Programming and then visualising it using Tableau.

This course was created during the lockdown due to Coronavirus pandemic. So, this course uses a dataset on Coronavirus.
