The next generation of maps for Power BI with Icon Map Pro

Preamble:
If you love Power BI and you love mapping in Power BI, then this is a session not to be missed. The Icon Map legend himself James Dales will join us (virtually) from London to introduce his new visual: Icon Map Pro!

Session summary:
This session will look at how to achieve some of the more advanced mapping requirements in Power BI. The new Icon Map Pro visual opens up more opportunities for creating more complex geospatial visuals. For example working with your own polygons to create choropleth maps, drawing lines, shapes and images to create interactive utility network diagrams and clustering data using the H3 hexagon grid system.

Our speaker:
Having previously led the Power BI and Microsoft Fabric capabilities at both UK and global level for a large multi-national Microsoft consultancy, James has recently established a new, ambitious data company Tekantis, enabling him to focus on geospatial analytics and data products.

James is a Microsoft Data Platform MVP and is the co-leader of the London Fabric and Power BI user group. In 2019 he became the first member of the Power BI Contributors Program, working alongside the Microsoft engineering team to build new functionality into the Power BI product codebase. He has a keen interest in geospatial and real-time analytics and is the author of the Icon Map and Icon Map Pro custom visuals.
