Tableau 2019.2 Features
Explore the newest features in Tableau 2019.2 including parameter actions, vector maps, and a new Tableau Server browsing experience
Feature highlights

Vector maps
Enjoy a richer mapping experience with vector-based maps. Maps will look even sharper and feel even smoother, as you pan, zoom in, and zoom out to explore your geospatial data. Enjoy updated dark, normal, and light default styles, ACS demographic data, and for authors, new map styles and layers available right out of the box.

Parameter actions
You now have the ability to visually change a parameter’s value. Use parameter actions to drive reference lines, calculations, filters, and SQL queries simply by interacting with marks on a viz, bringing visual interactivity to your data like never before.

New Tableau Content Browsing Experience
Arrive to a new home page on Tableau Server and Online that displays personally relevant content upfront. A new left navigation makes it easy to quickly access favorites and recents, and discover new content through popular views. Additionally, a welcome screen will walk new users through specific actions based on their role.

PostgreSQL+PostGIS Spatial support
You will now be able to use spatial data directly from a PostgreSQL or Pivotal Greenplum database with the PostGIS extension. No need to export or pre-process the data before diving into it in Tableau. And perform more advanced spatial analysis with the ability to now leverage the spatial operations supported by the database.

New Tableau Content Browsing Experience
Arrive to a new home page on Tableau Server and Online that displays personally relevant content upfront.

Ask Data improvements
We're making Ask Data feel even more conversational. Now you can add, remove, or replace statements with follow-up phrases. Adding calculations, such as the sum, difference, and the ratio of two measures is as simple as typing "avg sales / avg profit". Plus with the ability to create multiple sheets, you can build full dashboards from Ask Data generated vizzes. All of these enhancements make it easier to get answers from your data.
