Can you use dynamic spatial parameters?

Kyle set this challenge while I was on my holidays. And because I was away and short on time, I’m cheating a bit this week. I’m not going to provide a full solution guide, but am writing this blog to maintain consistency 🙂

The challenge was very specific to just the new dynamic spatial parameters feature, which is well documented. I used these two resources to familiarise myself with the feature and to build the challenge

My District map sheet referencing the School_District_Characteristics data source looked as below

My Schools map sheet referencing the School_Neighbourhood_Poverty data source, looked as below

where Filter View is a boolean calculated field

INTERSECTS([pViewport], [Geometry])

and pViewport is the dynamic spatial paremeter

My published viz is here.

Note – I did find both on Desktop and Tableau Public that the interactivity was very “laggy”

Happy vizzin’!
