Hello,
I want to do a Shape map for Canada, using https://www.diva-gis.org/gdata. I then converted the zip file using https://mapshaper.org/, therefore creating a json file.
I have 2 problems :
1) I would like to open the json file, using Power BI - file is too big
2) Using Shape map, there is too much data to process.
I did filter by provinces, but not much success.
Louis
@Louis66 Not sure if it will help but you can try using the Synoptic Panel custom visual instead and using an svg file for Canada provinces.
