Import Layers for Visual Representation

Hellos to everyone,

 

I have a banana farm, which I have divided it into 25 sectors. I have drawn all sectors on google maps (layers) and I'd like to import them on powerbi. My purpose is to show all productivity data on powerbi, by a color scale. I already have this information but on bars, I want it to visualize it on a map so I can cluster the sectors by location to identify inproducivity sectors. I don't care if only upload only the layers, I'd be awesome if I can see it on a actual map on powerbi, but with the layers is enough. Anyone knows how to do this?

Have you considered using Choropleth maps? There are some pretty good custom visuals available for that.

Hi @cafu1990 ,

As Ibendlin said, Choropleth maps are fine, but I think if your sector data is in a geographic format, you can use ArcGIS to create map layers.

You can define it yourself according to your own needs, or you can get a more in-depth learning based on this document: Create an ArcGIS map in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
