Retrieving the count of duplicate coordinates

Ive got a live stream of coordinates being fed to my custom visual, im displaying these on a building floorplan with varying intensity depending on duplicate coordinates. 

Power BI automatically aggregates these duplicates into single rows with a hidden count and my visual then only has 1 row to work with while it is actually 4 or 6.

 

While looking through the data in the Power BI service I noticed that it does keep a count of the duplicates. Is there a way to reach that count through some setting or property? Its all I need really.

 

Thanks in advance
