Data can be prepped in ArcGIS Pro and shared as a web map, or data can be added to a basemap in Map Viewer and all set-up done there. Charts selections do show on the map in Map Viewer. The main catch with shared web maps is data updates. Within ArcGIS Pro refreshing databases or Excel files is easy, but unfortunately to share as a web map, only permanent joins (using the Join data tool) are supported. This is fine if you already had all of your data on your geometries, but I know some Insights customers who like to keep them separate.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Others<\/h2>\n<p>Theoretically you can access your ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise data directly from Tableau which has the advantage of accepting multiple geometry fields. However, when I downloaded the latest desktop trial that method kept returning a driver error, so you may have to contact Tableau for help with that. Many other data analytics applications exist, e.g. ArcGIS Enterprise users can use ArcGIS Pro to link their <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/blog\/products\/data-analytics\/use-bigquery-with-esri-arcgis-to-power-your-geospatial-analysis\" target=\"_blank\">data to Google BigQuery<\/a> to then use Google Looker or Looker Studio for their visualization.<\/p>\n<p>ArcGIS AllSource may also be a good option for customers with network, link and time analysis, albeit more like ArcGIS Pro and targeted at intelligence for uniformed services.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nHope this has provided some help and technical guidance.
