Hi everyone,
I have a problem with Bing Map on Power BI.
In my database I have a Place called Ribeirão Gonçalves, Piauí, Brasil (City, State, Country).
I can see on the bing map website that this place does not exist on the map, and in Power BI It shows me some random area in the State Piauí, Brasil.
Also the same problem I have with Place called Terezópolis de Goiás, Goiás, Brasil, but this time the city can be found on the Bing map on the Internet but still shows wrong area.
My question is how to prevent this kind of situations? Does anyone have experience resolving such scenarios using Bing maps?
Thank You all in advance,
Solved! Go to Solution.
Turns out, The problem is with the Bing maps, where information about places are incorrect. The problem will be solved by Bing Support Team. It will take few months. If someone has similar issue it is good to inform them.

Thank you for answer Cherie,
I am already using Categories:
for column Location - category Place
for column City - category City
for column Country/Region - category Country
for column State - category State or Province,
and the problem still occures.
Unfortunately I don´t have longitude and latitude or post code to use.
