LogoutTableau Tree Maps
The treemap displays the data in nested rectangles. The dimensions define the structure of the treemap and measures determine the color or size of the individual square.
The squares are easy to visualize as the size and shade of the color of the square reflects the value of the measure.
A Treemap is created using one or more dimension with one or two measures.

Step 3: Drag the dimension Ship Mode and drop into the Label shelf.
Step 4: Choose the treemap option from the " show me ".
