Visual map route tracking
Hi everybody,
I would like to track the order of shipment of goods from one to another city in the world. Is there a way to visualize the order of the shipments on a map (route tracking)? Example: One package is shipment from London to Barcelona to Oslo to Toronto and back to London.
I found a visual 'Route Map' https://youtu.be/ywYF7tYBsy0?feature=shared. Is there anything from Microsoft?
Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately, I can't open the link you provided.
Certainly that the route map is a custom visual built for PowerBI to support rout visualization. Route map basically visualizes trajectories of objects, such as taxies, vessels, airplanes, and hurricanes.
Here are some links for reference:
Chris Webb's BI Blog: Displaying Routes On A Map In Power BI (crossjoin.co.uk)
PowerBI - Routemap Custom Visual (weiweicui.github.io)
If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

Thank you. Route map (microsoft.com) this is exactly what I am looking for. But this visual is not certified by Power BI. I couldn't find a certified route map visual, do you?
Thank you.
