Azure Maps Torres Straits Australia

Anyone noticed this odd maps shape off northern Austalia on the Azure maps? Not a big deal but looks messy. This is from the service but also appears like this in desktop.

Thankyou, @Thomaslleblanc, for your response.

Hi gooranga1,

We appreciate you taking the time to report this issue, as it helps improve the overall quality of Azure Maps for all users.

Based on my understanding, the visual anomaly you observed near the Torres Strait region is likely due to a temporary basemap rendering or missing tile issue in Azure Maps. Such occurrences can happen when certain map tiles fail to load or are absent from the basemap data layer provided by Azure Maps’ data providers. 

If you would like the product team to review and address this in a future map data update, please report it via the Azure Maps feedback channel:
Provide data feedback to Azure Maps - Microsoft Azure Maps | Microsoft Learn

Additionally, please refer to the following link to share your suggestions and feature requests with the Azure Maps team:

Should you have any further queries, please feel free to contact the Microsoft Fabric community.

Thank you.

How to create a Fabric and Power BI Support ticket - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

thanks @v-prasare but I am not really that fussed, I just spotted it and thought it looked quite poor. I presume this would affect anyone using these maps? We don't really use them that much especially in this part of the world so it really doesn't affect to raise a case.

This is currently broken in Azure Maps. You will need to create a support ticket with Microsoft to get resolved.
