offline custom maps in offline environment

Dears,

I want to build an interactive custom map for a specific location in an offline environment on a power bi report server.

 

I tried to use ARCHGIS to build a custom map and everything worked smoothly until I faced that the ARCHGIS plug-in does not support the offline environment.

 

Please I want a solution. It is really important.

any tips, hints, information, or recommendations can help.

Hi, @TahaAlmasri 

It's a known limitation.

ArcGIS for Power BI requires internet access, it does not operate in a disconnected environment.

Please check this official ARCGIS document.

https://doc.arcgis.com/en/power-bi/get-started/supported-env.htm 

 

As a workaround, you can try using shape map and json file to do a heatmap.

You can also try Synoptic Panel to show geographic maps.

Display data on customized maps in #powerbi (also offline) leveraging SVG format
