Geospatial data in Google Data Studio

Visualisation of the Geospatial data is not painful task anymore because with this tool you can easily communicate your results and update it whenever you want. WebGIS is getting more and more attention these days because of the more and more power it is getting with time.

I am taking an example of Covid-19 cases. We will take a publicly available data from a website and then take that to Google Spreadsheets. GIS specialists can use Google Spreadsheets as a backend database. Google Data studio will take the data from the spreadsheet file and intelligently place it on the chart and map. You can present almost any type of Geospatial data in this tool. Google provides a lot of help and many powerful tools for WebGIS and Remote Sensing Specialist these days. I will try to make introductory videos and blogs for all of these tools. An introductory GIS Specialist course can be seen here.
