Map with Static and Dynamic (date/time) data
- Anonymous5 years ago
So, I found out that there are Azure Maps and I can leverage the Reference Layer feature in this map. Just follow the Getting started page to setup the map.
I've managed to get the map to this point
The Blue and Red dots are the layered data points added in via a *.json file. Code for that file
{ "type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [ { "type": "Feature", "properties": { "color": "Red", "marker-size": "small" }, "geometry": { "type": "MultiPoint", "coordinates": [ [150.32385560, -26.87570000], [ 150.90156390, -27.16199722 ] ] } } , { "type": "Feature", "properties": { "color": "Blue", "marker-size": "small" }, "geometry": { "type": "MultiPoint", "coordinates": [ [ 148.393306, -25.433417] ] } } ] }Some limitations I'm working on:
- these layered points cannot use the OnHover tooltips
- I still haven't worked out how to add a label of some description (very new to json)
- making changes to the file, eg changing the color from Red to Green, then saving it don't go across to the PBI report. The file must be removed then added back it ... I need the Lats/Longs in this file to be changeable so I'll be working on this as well
Hope this helps someone else 🙂

Hi Anonymous ,
Thanks for your sharing! Your idea is great. More people will benefit from your sharing.😊 Have you tried a custom visual called "Route Map"? I
I did a test. Maybe it can meet part of your needs.
