Traveling salesman problem in PowerBI

HI, 

I have list of latitude, longitude points and I would like to find shortest way between points. What I was thinking is using Traveling salesman methods to create list of From To points. Do you have any idea how to do this so I can display it in PowerBI service. Maybe R package or something similar? Thanks

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I think you can refer to ankitpatira's article R script and R visuals in Power BI and this video: DesignMind Power BI Showcase Airline Analysis .

@v-qiuyu-msft, you have pointed me into right direction, to use R scripts and I found TSP package for R, but I'm still trying to handle it in wanted manner. I will update this topic with progress made. Thanks @v-qiuyu-msft
