Creating regional map with counties (separate US and Canada maps)

I am trying to create a regional map for our sales team, and have no clue how to set the filters. What to put on Latitude and Longitude. Tableau is way better and easier, but does not have an overlap feature that I am aware of. Please help!

Hi, @Anonymous 

According to your description, I can roughly understand what you want to get. But I can’t get the expected result without some sample data to test in Power BI. Would you like to post some sample data in table form or pbix file(without sensitive data) and your expected result so that we can help you in advance?

Thanks very much!

You have to select the field in question first.

Okay. And what are the filters to show DSM by county?

No filters.  In the map visualization, add State and County to Location.

That didn't work

Share the pbix or some sample data?

Assuming you have geographical data with state and county (must include both state and county because there are counties named Lake in Illinois, Indiana, etc) you would select the field and go up to Modeling in the Ribbon.  From there under data category, select State/Province (doing from memory...hopefully close) for state and County for county.

 

Hope that helps!  🙂
