Hi jurbano,

 

There is no Value field under the Map visuals.

Power BI integrates with Bing to provide default map coordinates (a process called geo-coding) so it's easier for you to create maps.

To increase the likelihood of correct geo-coding, you can use the following tips:

  1. Use Geo Location Terms
  2. Use a comma to add more context to the geo field
  3. Use specific Latitude and Longitude

For detailed steps, please check:

If any further help needed, please feel free to post back.

Regards

It looks for all the world that you do not have any data in your data model. The right-most pane should have a list of tables and columns in it that you pick from in order to populate the fields in the area you have highlighted.
