how to group identical latitude and longitudes to display multiple locations in tableau


So I have a list of LATs and LONGs with venues in a csv file. Let's say they look like this:

+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+
| latitude | longitude | venue         | address     |  |
+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+
| 23.123   | 44.32123  | music concert | 123 fake st |  |
+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+
| 23.123   | 44.32123  | football      | 123 fake st |  |
+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+
| 33.2342  | 41.2343   | theatre       | 22 red st   |  |
+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+
| 33.2342  | 41.2343   | comedy        | 22 red st   |  |
+----------+-----------+---------------+-------------+--+  

The goal is to have 2 single points in tableau, but when the user clicks on a point you can see the details or hover text showing 2 distinct venues for each point. Any ideas?


Solution

  • Then you want to treat latitude and longitude as continuous dimension for this worksheet instead of as a measure
