Polygon Reference Layer in Azure Map
Hi allison_t,
If you want to add a polygon to your Azure Maps visual as a reference layer you have to format your .json or .geojson slighly differently than a point feature. Here is a link to give you an idea: GeoJSON - Wikipedia.
But for your example, try changing it to the below code snippet. I noticed that in your example the polygon lands to the east of Madagascar.
That should get you going, if you are looking for a solution that will help you build complex polygons, bring them into Power BI, and link those polygons to your dataset, check out the EasyTerritory Power BI visual Territory Visual by EasyTerritory
{"type":"FeatureCollection","features":[{"type":"Feature","geometry":{"type":"MultiPolygon","coordinates":[[[[57.0,-162.0],[56.0,-162.0],[56.0,-164.0],[57.0,-164.0],[57.0,-162.0]]]]},"properties":{"fillColor":"#FF8A8A"}}]}
Take care,
Matt

mroot Thank you!! I couldn't find examples of a polygon and had started with a point feature example that I found, that would explain where I missed a few steps. Appreciate your help!
