COVID-19 US Retail Impact
The 2020 holiday retail season will be a season like no other. More than ever, retailers will need a deep understanding of their customers to meet expectations for a seamless, omnichannel experience. Understanding patterns of consumer behavior, including visitation patterns, can give retailers a competitive advantage by enabling a data-driven approach to forecasting and planning.
FEATURED SURVEY
Data-driven resilience
How important is it to be data-driven, especially during a pandemic? Tableau, in partnership with YouGov, commissioned a survey of senior managers and IT leaders in four European markets to understand what sets data-driven companies apart from their non data-driven peers. Discover how leading with data during the COVID-19 crisis helps companies feel better equipped to make informed decisions and face the future with confidence.
FEATURED VISUALIZATION
The impact of COVID-19 on civil aviation
COVID-19 is profoundly impacting air carriers, airports, and air navigation service providers around the world. Stakeholders need rich, actionable data insights to understand the impacts and inform decisions that are shaping the future of the aviation industry. ICAO, a specialized agency of the United Nations, in partnership with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation of Turkey, is using ADS-B Flight aware data to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on civil aviation in four areas: operational impact, economic impact, aircraft utilization, and country-pair traffic.

As you use COVID-19 data, it’s important to remember that, while the underlying data comes from trusted sources, it’s difficult to estimate an accurate count for the number of COVID-19 cases worldwide because of the vastly different approaches to both testing and reporting. Also remember, even data visualizations based on accurate data can be misleading.
