Multiple Analysis in ArcGIS Maps

I need to achieve two things: Is it possible to create a multi-layer analysis in ArcGIS Maps? Specifically, I want one layer to display a 30-minute drive time and another to show a 20-minute drive...

    Hi Pojha - Yes, it is possible to achieve a multi-layer analysis in ArcGIS Maps for Power BI to display different drive times (e.g., 20-minute and 30-minute) and to use color coding for easier analysis of overlapping areas. 

    You can create multiple drive-time layers by following these steps:

    Enable the ArcGIS Visual in Power BI:

    Add the ArcGIS Maps visual from the visualization pane.
    Add Data Points:

    Ensure your dataset includes the locations for which you want to calculate drive times.
    Create Multiple Drive-Time Buffers:

    Use the Drive-Time Analysis tool in ArcGIS Maps:
    Open the Layers menu.
    Select your locations and apply a drive-time area. Specify a 20-minute buffer for one layer.
    Repeat the process for a 30-minute drive-time buffer in another layer.
    Differentiate Layers:

    Assign a unique name and description to each layer for clarity.

    Go to the Layer Settings in the ArcGIS visual.
    Select the layer representing the 20-minute drive time, and assign a distinct color (e.g., blue).
    Repeat for the 30-minute drive-time layer with a different color (e.g., orange).
    Adjust Transparency:

    In the Layer Settings, adjust the transparency of each layer to see overlapping regions.
