    jeffclarke,

     

    First thing is to check whether you can access and use Bing map in IE.
    https://www.bing.com/maps

     

    I have tested it on my local environment, we can use use map visual without any issue. In your scenario, could you please try to updated your Power BI desktop to latest version and check if this issue persists or not. If the issue persists, please share your PBIX file, so that we can make further analysis.

     

    Regards,

    Charlie Liao

I am also having the same issue, Like map is recogonize some city/country or sometime not recogonize at all.


And I have cleared cache and reinstalled the Power BI, Nothing seems to work after sometime I found there is another map visual called 'ArcGIS Maps for Power BI' in build menu and it works fine for me, But the downside is it is not as fast as bing map

 

To enable the 'ArcGIS Maps for Power BI' , Go to Options > Global > Security > enable 'Use ArcGIS for Power Bl'

 

Maybe I think the problem is bing map (maybe I am wrong).
