Extract data from a specific area ofa map
Hi Anonymous ,
Try to use geo-hierarchies
Use geo-hierarchies so you can drill down to different "levels" of location
When your dataset already has different levels of location data, you and your colleagues can use Power BI to create geo-hierarchies. To do this, drag more than one field into the Location bucket. Used together in this way, the fields become a geo-hierarchy. In the example below we have added geo fields for: Country/Region, State, and City. In Power BI you and your colleagues can drill up and down using this geo-hierarchy.
Here is the reference.

Hi Kelly
I have completed a review on the links but no luck, whenever you zoom in on a map to a say a 2 inch area with many roads you can not seem to extract just that specific data range which is what i am chasing.
When you export or view the data you get all data for whatever your base filters are accross the entire area not just the zoomed in area. 😞
Thanks
