Auto-refresh Tableau dashboards when new Scarborough audience data releases

Detect new market releases or updated consumer survey waves in Nielsen Scarborough and automatically push refreshed audience metrics into Tableau extracts. Media planners always see the latest demographics, psychographics, and media consumption patterns without manual data pulls.

Build audience profile dashboards from Scarborough segmentation criteria

Sync DMA-level consumer insights to regional Tableau workbooks
