This week we are going to have some fun with Power Query to obtain data from a website that spans multiple pages and then visualize the data in a treemap.
Treemaps are meant to display hierarchical data as a set of nested rectangles. They aren't a great replacement for bar charts when minor differences are important. They are good at showing part-to-whole relationships in a large amount of hierarchical data.
We are using the built-in treemap visual in Power BI. As you work with the treemap visual, note anything you think is missing or could be improved. There is a hashtag #PBICoreVisuals being used on Twitter, LinkedIn, the Power BI Community forums, and other social media platforms to discuss the future of visualizations in Power BI. You can share your opinions about the tree map and other core visuals in Power BI using this hashtag. You can watch this video to learn about the current planned roadmap for visual improvements and see the responses from the Power BI team on social media. There is currently a very active discussion around the core visuals (with responses from the responsible program manager at Microsoft), and we encourage you to participate.
