Abstract

Data visualization in Power View is not limited to tables and charts. Another powerful technique that you can use to both analyze and present your insights is to display the data in map form. All that this requires is that your source data contains information that can be used for geographical representation. So, if you have country, state, town, or even latitude and longitude in the data set, then you can get Power View to add a map to your report and show the selected data using the map as a background.
