Adding static points inside a heat map

Hi, im wondering how to make a heat map that also contains specific locations. My goal is to represent the population of Spain with a heat map and also, in the same heatmap, represent the specific locations of differents stores. The data that I have is the name, postal code, and population from each city of Spain and also the latitude and longitude of the stores. Is it possible to do it? How can I make it?

Hi @arodriguezperez ,

 

Refer this ,you can follow the steps below to create a heat map.

(1)To get Power BI Heat Map, first, open Power BI Desktop and login in using Sign in option.

(2)We can use Corporate or Student ID only to access this feature. Once we get into the Power BI server, then click on 3 dots at the end of the Visualization section to import custom visuals. And select Import From Marketplace”.

Okey, but when I represent the population of the different postal codes, is there any possibilite of display points over the heat areas?
