Can PowerBI Map visualizations show "routing"?
For example, a record has "From" and "To" address info (either street address or lat/long). The Map visual would show a "line" linking the two locations. Like an airline route map. The thickness of the line could be volume/expression related.
Could be used for logistics route map visualizations.

RE: Power BI Map Routing
yes please do this
RE: Power BI Map Routing
Please add this feature/visualization!!!!!! It is the one feature that stops us from using PowerBi instead of the competition!!
RE: Power BI Map Routing
This can be achieved to a limited extent with force diagrams or network diagrams, but these show only the relationship, not the true locations. We work with a number of logistics clients and this would really be useful.
RE: Power BI Map Routing
I want it too!
RE: Power BI Map Routing
This sounds like a great idea. I was just thinking about this to create an information dashboard for our personnel bus routes
RE: Power BI Map Routing
Yeah this would be very nice for a project I'm working on at the moment. Kinda like path maps in Tableau. http://kb.tableau.com/articles/knowledgebase/using-path-shelf-pattern-analysis
RE: Power BI Map Routing
We're a transportation company that would love to cancel our contract with a direct competitor of Power BI, but would absolutely need to have this feature.
RE: Power BI Map Routing
Would love to see options such as viewing Toll Roads and also a field to route Yes/No on Tolls. This would assist with decision making based on Historical and current data. We can already plot everything using Latitude and Longitude but we need that extra step. Transportation is a key department in every company.
RE: Power BI Map Routing
like to have this map/chart in power bi
RE: Power BI Map Routing
You can achieve this kind of result using R Visualization. But I agree it would be much nicer to have a map with interactions and filtering / contextualization.
Voted.
