Mapping question

Hi all,

 

I'm delving into mapping on Power BI and loving it so far. I have a number of addresses for companies that I produce ratings for and would like to know if its possible to have an input box, where a user can enter an address or city, then have another input box to enter a radius. I'd like these 2 inputs to run a query which shows the user the companies in that radius or even square area.

 

Is this possible with Power BI using in-built or even custom visualisations?

 

 

thank you

Yes, you may refer to pseudocode below.

IF ( [distance] <= [radius], 1 )

@Anonymous,

 

You may add two slicers and try creating a measure to calculate the distance, then drag it to Size of a Map visual.

Thanks @v-chuncz-msft - I thought the size in a map visual just changes the dot size - is that what you meant?
