I've been meaning to publish an article on interfacing with
data visualizations on a mobile device for months now and I've finally had an opportunity to publish it on
Dashboard Insight. Mobile BI is the hot topic now but the truth of the matter is, it's more of a check box on a dashboard or BI platform vendor evaluation form. People know what they want, but I'm hoping this articulate how one can get the most out of their mobile phones.
In this article, I propose a more practical approach for tasked with building a data visualization interface for their BI initiative. Important considerations need to be made. Specifically:
- Screen real estate
- The mobile device interface
- Operational Usage
I provide many screen shots, courtesy of my colleague
Kamar Martin. Enjoy!
