ArcGIS Maps visualisation in Power BI

ArcGIS overview

ArcGIS for Power BI allows users to combine their own data with location-based data from ArcGIS to create interactive maps and dashboards for their business needs.

Users can create custom maps, add data points and layers, and perform spatial analysis on their data to gain insights into location-based trends and patterns. They can also overlay demographic data and use other advanced mapping tools to create visually compelling and informative data visualizations.

Pros:

  • Options for drivetime and distance radii;
  • Clustering feature as you zoom in or out;
  • Heatmap feature;
  • Option for reference layers from ArcGIS Online;
  • Built-in infographics feature that updates as you move around the map.

Cons:

  • Can’t add custom shapes unless added to ArcGIS Online first and shared publicly;
  • Not shown when publishing to web or embedding;
  • Not available for Power BI Report Server.

  • Symbol style (settings for the symbol used with bubble as default)
  • Pins (pin a location)
  • Drive time (drive time from a starting location)
