Which maps to use?

Could anybody help me with chosing the correct solution? I need to create the map with georaphical areas over the world with zip codes. When user will click an area then the other areas will be shown in different colors depending on the number of days to make it through. 

Need Help

    Hi Utyrek7 ,

    Please review the following links and check whether the maps below can help you achieve your requirement.

    1. ArcGIS maps

    Zip code map on PBI

    I am using ArcGIS to populate my data, and it works, but you are right, if I need specific boundary zip map, I have to use Synoptic Panel by OKViz, I still need to study on this. 

    2. Shape map visual

    Zip Code/Post Code Map

    There's an option in Power BI Options called Preview Features. I selected the "Shape Map visual" and then was able to build my map from there. It requires a zip code JSON file, which I was able to find on a public repository on Github.

    3. Basic map visual

    Best Regards
