Going Paperless in the Waste Industry - From Data Collection Apps to Power BI
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
Christian ran through the June 2023 Power BI desktop update blog, including showing a demo on the new card visual. Simon then introduced Traste's waste collection app and the workflow which feeds into a Power BI report for tracking waste. From here the Power BI reports are exported to PDF as this is the preferred method of reviewing the data by the client. It was a very engaging session with great discussion across the group.
