Filled map not recognising all countries

Why does the filled map visual not recognise proper ISO 3 character country codes?  Ive set the data category to be country and confirmed in the data that Australia is AUS but if I filter for just Australia I can see it colours in the United States...  Do I need to go through my dataset and add in the actual full country name?  Surely visuals like this should run well on ISO country codes?

Hi @Craigja123 

 

This article will help https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-map-tips-and-tricks

 

From My knowledge you will need use the full name that Bing maps uses or the Latitude & Longitude. You can find Full tables on Wikipedia that contain the ISO 2 & 3 along with Country Names, that you could possible use as a Dimension table
