Custom shape-map limited to 1,500 geo points / colours broken

Hi there, 

 

I am looking for a good visual to plot zip codes in the netherlands on a map. I used the shape-map with a custom map. The problem is that the shape-map visual is limited to 1500 data points on displaying data and the colours break on displaying multiple categories. Is there a good alternative (except for the arcgis visual) in Power BI to make such a map?

Hi @Jelmervanginkel,

You could check out the Territory Visual by EasyTerritory which allows you to build geographic boundaries based on Netherland postal codes, link those boundaries to your dataset, and control classification, labeling, coloring, etc.  EasyTerritory does have a small subscription fee, that includes a web portal for building your territories, geocoding, and creating additional reference layers for overlaying our visual.

Take care,
