You possibly don’t need to have a fancy Domo chart to explain to you that gasoline has gotten rather high priced. But we went ahead and imported weekly ordinary fuel prices from the U.S. Electricity Data Agency anyway. In undertaking so, we also get to examine a single of my favored new characteristics in Domo: Clever Textual content, which lets you insert dynamic text in just both of those notebook cards and in the title for any card in Domo. So, when you select a little something other than “United States” from the fall-down menu beneath “Geo Name” (underneath), it will also alter the chart upcoming to it (“United States-Typical Weekly Gasoline Prices”) to no matter what region, condition, or town you selected. Likewise, the time time period will improve from “Last 30 Years” when I select a unique date vary, or highlight a unique segment in the line graph. “The Min Fuel Price” and “Max Gas Price” textual content use Domo dynamic summary numbers, which allow me to add metrics to my narrative. These are fantastic equipment for guaranteeing that buyers have the correct context even as they self-serve with distinctive filters and drills. You will also discover below that we are experimenting with a narrative function (nevertheless in pre-beta), which dynamically generates insights about a specified card in Domo. I definitely like this element because it allows convey new insights out of knowledge in a narrative structure. As you filter for a new geography or a distinct time period, the narrative refreshes with new insights. Fairly darn neat, if you question me. Because we launched “Domo on Data,” we have been very concentrated on U.S. knowledge. That’s much to the chagrin of some of my colleagues all around the earth, but it only has to do with the obstacle in finding metrics from other governments, which are likely to be excellent at supplying totally free facts but bad at compiling throughout countries. That mentioned, for this article, we have been able to uncover some info on worldwide fuel price ranges via the World wide Petrol Prices internet site. The facts is not accessible for cost-free, but does give us some wonderful context. For occasion, though gas in the U.S. is additional than $4 for every gallon, it is practically $11 in Hong Kong and only a little much less than that in the Netherlands. Yikes. We will perform to convey much more worldwide details to these web pages in coming posts. Oh, and if you’re wanting to know when the past time gas was beneath $1 for every gallon in the U.S., the response is March 1999. How I extended for individuals days!
