Draw a circle

Hello,
I would like to draw a circle of radius 10km around the cities with the blue dot.
Do you know if this is possible?

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You may try to use ArcGIS Map visual. There's a feature called Drive Time.

Create a ArcGIS map, and edit the map. Then set the radius from all the selected points.

Hi stephen,

Thanks a lot for your answer, ArcGIS driving mode is great, however I can only circle a city and not automatically.
I need to enclose all cities with an x>50, do you know if this is possible with the paid version of ArcGIS?
Thanks,

I finally found that there are 10 maximum driving times (drive mode) per card (paid version) and it is not automatic.
I think my application is not suitable for PowerBI

sounds like it.  If your geographic region is small enough you might be able to get away with a bubble scatter plot but it might be hard to get the background image right.

would you be open to using the Shape map or Azure map visual instead?

I can't use the shape map because I'm using the CP "Postal Code" for the locatization.

It could be a great solution to use Azure Map but I want more because I need 2 informations :

- One for the number of mission

- One for a 10km radius.

I think with Azure map I could have only one information no ?

Slightly unrelated, but the new heatmap feature actually allows for a 10km radius...

It's not pretty but better than nothing. What I am actually trying to do is add a fake circle out of dots that are one degree apart.  Haven't sorted out the formula for those yet though.
