Bring your Christmas hat and festive gear, and join us as we have a jam-packed line up for our December edition of Power BI and Data Analytics for Enviros, with lots of interesting case studies of data analytics across the environmental industry, and some Power BI design tips and tricks.

The line-up is:

  1. Intro to the World of Custom Visuals: Daniel Marsh-Patrick (~ 15 mins)
    Daniel Marsh-Patrick, Power BI custom visual developer extraordinaire, will give us a quick intro into the world of custom visuals, from no-code, to low-code to full blown development - he'll share the different options you have available and show you some of his very own visuals!
  2. Top 5 custom visuals that Enviro's need to know: Alice Drummond (~15 mins): There are close to 300 Power BI custom visuals out there on the marketplace... but Alice will share her top 5 for visualising environmental data, and walk through loads of demo's of how to apply them!
  3. Beyond "Click and Viz": Kerry Kolosko (~ 25 mins)
    We are increasingly using data viz to convey information but how do we make our Corporate coloured bar charts stand out from all the other Corporate coloured bar charts? Kerry will discuss and demonstrate creative uses of custom visuals to enhance visual communication, provide context to reports and engage audiences.

There will be an opportunity for 5 minutes' worth of questions for each presenter at the end of their sessions.
