“Combining Mapbox & Tableau brings a whole new level of mapping capability to our customers. Our goal has always been to help people achieve the visualisation they need and we’re very excited to combine Tableau’s powerful geocoding and interactive capabilities with beautiful and customisable Mapbox maps”.
