# Explorations ## What are explorations? Exploration are a combinations of datasets, relationships and aggregations put together so that your data consumer can safely combine data and create reports without relying on technical expertise. This help you: * Boost data adoption by providing a product to your end users * Make your user more data savvy by giving them tools they understand * Maintain your company metric layer by controlling how data is being queried * Reduce maintenance when definition change - when updating a metric or a dimension all reports are subsequently updated with your changes. An exploration is the entry point to create charts in Whaly. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
