Hello,
I try to make a topojson file from a shape map using Mapshaper. But when I load the file in Power BI its a mesh (shown below). This is the link to the Zip file with the shape map: http://www.imergis.nl/shp/Gemeentegrenzen_2016_zonder_water.zip
I tried the solutions I found in other articles on the forum but with no succes. Does anybody has an solution for this?
What I am looking for is a map of the Netherlands with al the countys ('gemeenten' in dutch), i cant find it on the web as topojson.
Thanks!!

I just googled "Netherland topojson" and found various resources, happened to pick one in github and tested. The github page is https://gist.github.com/TWIAV/5255576e21f45ea97a49.
Based on my observation and test, many topojson that converted from the mapshaper can't be loaded well. Not sure about the exact reason, we have reported this to the PG team and I believe they're evaluating this situation. Anyway the shaped map now is a feature preview, I think it will work in GA release. 🙂
