Do you have LAT/LNG for all your addresses?

It'll take me a couple days to get permission to even send masked data, but I should be able to put something together. In the meantime, what are you thinking as a solution? Custom visual or some combination of existing functionality?

Yes, we have LAT/LNG for all our addresses.

  Based on my research, there is no such a option on Map visual in current version of Power BI. If you have full exprience on coding, you could develop a custom visual based on your own requirement.
