This is a step-by-step online dashboard creating course, that will teach the students how to take their geospatial data and visualize it using wonderful software called ArcGIS online. The course consists of three sections:

Then, the process of building a complete dashboard – creating line charts, bar charts, pie charts, indicator, gauges, head bar and side bars – are all explained one by one.

The second section, it will be explained how to upload our own geospatial data with csv format to ArcGIS online server and then how to plot the data on a map.
