DASHBOARDS, EXPLORES, LOOKS
Data Library consists of three main tabs in addition to the welcome page: Dashboards, Explores, and Looks.
- Dashboards: collection of tiles with an answer to a particular question; answer to related Looks on one page (a collection of data query visualizations)

LOCAL AREA AND FOOTPRINT DASHBOARDS
Data Library also has two additional sections of Pre-built Dashboards: Local Area and Footprint.
