Mapping Errors - Map Shows Incorrect Locations

Submitted by Responsive Resident on ‎03-28-2019 01:31 PM

I believe this is a bug rather than a user error. Original Post

 

As you can see from my screenshot, It is showing data that should be in Colorado in Nebraska and Maryland. 

Sample PBIX

Hi @jtownsend21 ,

 

Please try below workaround that edit the dataset to include the word "County" after each county name in order to show the correct locations on the county drill level.

 

1. Create a new column `EditedCounty = CONCATENATE([County], " County")`

2. Set the data category of the new column to "County".

3. Use the new column in place of original "County" column and see correct map location.

 

Best regards,

Yuliana Gu
