pbi-globalization
A Power BI visualization to show data through Latitudes and Longitudes :earth_americas: :bar_chart:
How it works
Give the visualization a latitude + longitude coordinate, data value, and location name. The globe will display a databar at each Lat/Long location with the length determined by the value. Tooltips will hover over the top 10 values (or top x if there is less than 10 rows).
Installing this Visualization
Option 1 - GitHub
Navigate to the /dist/ folder and download the .pbiviz file
Option 2 - Microsoft AppSource Store
