            Identify Hotspots Across Cyclical Time Periods with Radial Heatmaps

            Surface trends, gaps, and intensity across equal, cyclical time periods with a Tableau Next radial heatmap. Use color to reveal variations in a measure across categories while preserving the cyclical sequence. For example, visualize weekly case volume by support channel to identify seasonal peaks, quieter periods, and recurring patterns throughout the year.
