Flight Path Visual - 'Flow Map' alternative?
*** Solution Found ***
Not sure how I haven't stumbled onto this earlier - or found a post related to it. Route Map Visual.It is no where as well presented as the flow map for the purpose I used it for - but it works!
It requires the Lat / Lon for Origin and Destination, and you can't change the map to be greyscale to make the lines 'pop', or create a different bubble colours to the line... at least from the initial 5 mintes of playing around i have done.
Hi StidifordN,
You could give my "Maps" visual a try: Browse Apps | Microsoft Marketplace
It is capable of mapping routes (even multi stop), as well as points and shapes, and comes with many options.
Kind regards,
Alex
Thankyou for the heads up on this tool. I had a good look through, downloaded the sample (which kind of worked... it was still restricted by licence issues so i couldn;t see the full functionality) and it looks like a really powerful *paid* tool.
Ideally was chasing down a free to use option - Route Map Visual is free and for my specific purpose works well.
From now on, it can be used in Desktop without limitations. You will need a license to use it in Service though.
Awesome, i'll re-download and have another look through.
