What is Tableau Public?
Tableau Public is a free platform for publicly sharing and exploring data visualisations online. Anyone can create visualisations using either Tableau Desktop Professional Edition or the free Public Edition. With millions of inspiring data visualisations, or “vizzes” as we affectionately call them, anyone can see and understand vizzes about any public data topic under the sun, making data part of everyday life and helping a community to grow and learn from each other.
Explore data visualisations on any public data topic.
Get inspired by over 3 million interactive data visualisations created by more than 1 million people from around the world. From music to sports and politics, Tableau Public users have created visualisations on every possible topic. Browse our curated galleries of community-created visualisations or search for topics by keyword with the help of hashtags. Discover how other users create their vizzes by downloading to your desktop or exploring directly in your browser. “Favourite” visualisations to add to your favourites for quick access later.
