Real World Power BI: What Size Water Tank do I Need?
Alice Drummond
The "Power BI and Data Analytics for Enviros" meetup group is all about sharing tips, tricks and hacks for analysing, visualising and communicating environmental data. The purpose of this blog is to summarise the key take-aways from the sessions, to help with sharing knowledge, empowering others and creating a strong data culture across our community.
Session Summary
For our April 2022 session we had Matt Allington (Australian Microsoft MVP) present on his rainwater tank Power BI report. Matt is a leading global expert in the dark arts of Power Query and DAX, and acknowledges that if you want to be good at Power BI, you must get practice. That doesn’t mean you have to practice at work - you can also get practice in at home. In this session, Matt stepped us through a process of creating a report from scratch to determine what size rain water tank is needed for a new property/house. Matt has blogged about this process, which you can read HERE to learn more!!
