In the Part 1 I have explained some of the main statistics measure such as Minimum, Maximum, Median, Mean, First Quantile, and Third Quantile. Also, I have show how to draw them in Power BI, using R codes. (we have Boxplot as a custom visual in power BI see :https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/visual-awesomeness-unlocked-box-and-whisker-plots/ ). However, to see the data Read more about Visualizing Data Distribution in Power BI – Histogram and Norm Curve -Part 2[…]
In this post and next one, I am going to show how to see data distribution using some visuals like histogram, boxplot and normal distribution chart. It always important to have a holistic perspective regarding the minimum, maximum, middle, outliers of our data in one picture. One of the chart that helps us to have a Read more about Visualizing numeric variables in Power BI – boxplots -Part 1[…]

Sometimes we just need to see the natural trend and behaviour of data without doing any predictions. we just want to check how our business data can be naturally grouped. According to the Wikipedia , Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same group (called a cluster) Read more about Clustering Concepts , writing R codes inside Power BI: Part 5[…]
In the part 1, I have explained how to use R visualization inside Power BI. In the second part the process of visualization of five dimension in a single chart has been presented in Part 2, and finally in the part 3 the map visualization with embedded chart has been presented. In current post and next ones I Read more about Variable Width Column Chart, writing R codes inside Power BI: Part 4[…]
I have written about 4 other types of map visual with Power BI before. In this post I want to explain how ArcGIS visual work as a map visual. There are some specific features in this visual which is simple to use, but will give you a lot of insight. With this type of map Read more about ArcGIS Map in Power BI; Simple, But Insightful[…]
You can use an existing data set with LiveQuery or DirectQuery connection as the shared data source for multiple Power BI reports. You can also create multiple reports from Power BI Service (website) connecting to the same data set.
