Help with mapping census tract data
I have census tract data and am trying to map it using power bi. I am having no luck finding any guides, tutorials, etc. to help me with this. I am brand new to doing this and am experiencing some frustration. Can anyone provide some clear guidance on how to get started doing this? Thanks.

Hi mlfornash ,
You can try this steps:
- Enable the shape map as described: Use Shape maps in Power BI Desktop (Preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
2.Check the ArcGIS fit your data or not: Create an ArcGIS map in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
You can do this by referring these documentations :
Power BI Census Map Guidance – Attadale Partners
ArcGIS for Power BI—ArcGIS for Power BI | Documentation
Hope this helps you.

thanks for the response but this was not helpful at all. I have arcgis and it does not show how to map census tracts nor have I had any luck map census tracts with it. I have shape maps in powerbi but that does not work either. I am not sure what the link to attadale partners is? is there no clear instructions for doing this?
