We primarily use maps to organize sales and production by geographical areas. They are also crucial when trying to chart geographical trends and gain geographical insights. Maps in Power BI Desktop all use Bing Maps, so you must be connected to the internet to use this tool.
It is always important to follow best practices for Power BI Maps.
