Family Tree Chart
An interactive family tree visual that lets you explore relationships across generations with ease.
This custom visual enables you to create and explore family trees (genealogy charts) directly within Power BI. It is ideal for museums and history departments wanting to illustrate the lineage of kings, queens, and dynasties, as well as for genealogists and individuals mapping their own family and friends.
Beyond history, it also supports educational and scientific use in biology, where visualising genetic inheritance and kinship structures is essential. With interactive zooming and click-through navigation, the visual provides a clear and engaging way to understand complex relationships across generations, making it a versatile tool for historical storytelling, genealogical research, and scientific education alike.
