Spotfire, the best BI program that drives rational decision-making in your organization!
Visualization is a method of effectively communicating data analysis results through various visualization tools (diagrams, graphs, maps, etc.), and its importance is growing in the big data era where insights must be discovered from massive data piles.
Spotfire is a data visualization analysis program that has been loved by users of all walks of life and sizes since its first development in the mid-1990s.
It is being used by leading companies and organizations around the world, and its scope is expanding as it is being utilized by many companies and institutions in Korea, including Samsung Electronics, Hyundai, Seoul National University, and Kangwon National University.


Unlike other visualization programs that focus on the 'visualization tool' itself, Spotfire focuses on 'visualization analysis'.
In addition to providing various visualizations, it also adds powerful 'analysis functions' to enable you to discover insights through analysis through visualization alone.
Therefore, even if you are not an advanced statistical analysis specialist, anyone who uses data on a daily basis can experience the charm of data visualization analysis through Spotfire and grow into a data scientist.


The first detailed guide for Spotfire users!
This book is written for those who are new to Spotfire, or those who are already using it but want to get more out of it.
Because Spotfire is very intuitive to use and provides a consistent user interface (UI) for all visualizations and analysis techniques, it is more efficient for beginners to first fully understand how to use one chart (visualization) and then apply it to the rest of the charts, rather than trying to learn how to use multiple visualizations at once.


Therefore, this book gives priority to commonly used functions and settings rather than difficult, advanced functions that are less frequently used, and explains them in as much detail and friendliness as possible.
Parts of the process that may be complicated or confusing can be easily learned step by step through 'Follow Along'.
In addition, this book includes beginner precautions, practical tips, and statistical knowledge to aid understanding, so even readers starting out on their own can solidify their Spotfire fundamentals with just this one book.


The second edition has been revised and reorganized based on Spotfire 10.3, which has improved user convenience!
Starting in 2018, the existing Spotfire 7 version was discontinued and the new version 10 was introduced.
The new version improves user convenience by handling data through Data Canvas, and greatly enhances various visualization recommendation functions using a machine learning engine.
Accordingly, the revised 2nd edition has significantly replaced the descriptions and images of program usage based on version 10.3, the Long Term Service (LTS) version.
We have also included an appendix comparing the features and menus that have changed from previous versions so that readers who are starting Spotfire with version 10 for the first time as well as existing users of version 7 can utilize it.


● Fully revised 2nd edition upgraded to Long Term Service (LTS) version 10.3!
● An easy-to-follow beginner's guide for anyone who needs visualization analysis!
● Detailed and friendly explanations of frequently used key functions and settings all in one place!
● A glance at tips for practical use and precautions for mistakes that beginners often make!
● The first step towards becoming an expert in data visualization analysis, moving beyond simple, repetitive tasks!
● An appendix that allows you to easily find out how to use functions and menus that have changed from the previous version!
