Map Visualization Not Loading All Data Points

Having an issue in which all location data points are not loading on a map.  (United State zip codes)  In reading up on this issue it seems there may be a limit to the number of locations that will load on a map.  Is this the case?  Is there a way to increase this limit?  We have a business need to map out zip codes across the united states, and need a view for the full national map.

Hi  @wrights22 ,

 

There is a limit to the number of data points that can be displayed on a Power BI map visual object, and the data point limit on a standard map visual object cannot be increased beyond a set threshold.

You can check out other map visuals that offer additional features and higher limits for data points:

Create an ArcGIS map in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Use Shape maps in Power BI Desktop (Preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Thank you for the response.  To confirm -  you're stating that Power BI does not have the ability to map, as an example, every zip code on a United States map? (there are over 40,000)
