Visualization of geom data on map

[ashi7upt]

I have a column containing geom values that can be used to create geometrical shapes on maps in PostgreSQL's geometry viewer. Is there a way to achieve a similar effect in Power BI?

Hi  @ashi7upt ,

You might consider using Shape Map, which allows you to use custom maps as long as they are in TopoJSON format. If your map is in another format, you can use an online tool such as Map Shaper to convert shapefiles or GeoJSON maps to TopoJSON format.

Use Shape maps in Power BI Desktop (Preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

There is also information about other map visual supported by Power BI here:
