Map not displaying correct

Hi,

 

I have tried fixing it myself and googling it but to no avail.

 

My map is not showing correctly. According to my map Canada is in Europe and Austalia is in the middel of the ocean next to Brazil.

 

Any idea why its not showing the correct location.

 

Kind Regards

    All right, slow down.  These things happen.    Are you using Azure Maps Power BI Visual, Map Visual, Shape Map Visual, Filled Map Visual, or another custom Visual?  Many times it is the data set in that the data necessary to Geo locate is missing or needs additional information to plot correctly.   Location, perhaps, Lat and Long, State or Provence, City with correct spelling, Postal Code.     Share your PBIX and source file in Excel format, so members of the Forum can assess the state.    It is funny though, I suppose Canada is in Europe, and well Australia might enjoy being next to Brazil.  All in good fun.
