Data / visualisation disapearing on map
I've been trying to get a account manager overview across zipcodes in the Netherlands both in power BI desktop and powerbi.com. The dataset is about 3000 records and looks like this: Whe...
No, the warning in the screenshots is that I need more location data because i'm using zipcodes not "real" location data.
But I suppose there could be more then one warnings hiding behind this one. Ill give your link a read :)
ralbouts Which columns you are using in the chart. Is it only zip codes or Country + ZipCodes? Using only zipcodes can confuse Power BI because in Netherlands four digit code is used. The same format is used in other countries as well so You need to tell power BI more about which postal Codes you are trying to plot.
Secondly in your model did you label Country and ZipCode columns as Country/Region and Postal Code under
Modelling -> Data Category
- Unfortunately, yes there are two problems here: 1) We have limits on the number of areas we can show on a map (hard to fix, it's for performance reasons as the polygons can be very detailed and the web rendering engine we use struggles) and 2) We only show one of the warnings at a time (easier to fix, and something we'll take a look at!). How many zipcodes are you trying to plot here?
