@@LondonBusinessAnalyticsGroup haha - honestly, the videos you produce and the material are stellar. I owe you more than a few pints once Lockdown ends...
I didn't know that Bing maps could plot with UK post codes; Ive been mapping to latitude and longitude: good tip. Something that may be useful to the community is the Excel formulas I developed to decompose UK postcodes into the their Area, District, Sector and Unit sub-components: Area : =IF(ISNUMBER(VALUE(MID([@Postcode],2,1))),LEFT([@Postcode],1),LEFT([@Postcode],2)) District: = IF(FIND(" ",[@Postcode])=3,MID([@Postcode],2,1),IF(FIND(" ",[@Postcode])=5,MID([@Postcode],3,2),IF(ISNUMBER(VALUE(MID([@Postcode],2,1))),MID([@Postcode],2,2),MID([@Postcode],3,1)))) Sector: =MID(RIGHT([@Postcode],3),1,1) Unit: =MID(RIGHT([@Postcode],3),2,2)
Hi can someone help me, what i'm trying to do is. e.g i have 5 drivers. each time they stop it generates a location on the map. i want to join the dots up on the map to create a route they took for each driver i am able to plot the different location on the map and group them in different colours per driver but i can't see and option to join them up also with an indication of what way they are going. anyone able to help me please?
There's some really useful information here. Many thanks for taking the time to put it together, excellent tutorial.
Absolute class! You deserve a Nobel Prize.
Thanks Amarvir! I'll take the $100K that goes with it also;-) - Mark

Thanks Graeme, these are very useful. - Mark
Loving your videos! Around 4:50, why do you create a measure to count the rows rather than using the built in count feature?
Hello Mark, Currently learning power bi. how do i create a similar table as yours with the graphs on the table. I like what im seeing.
HI Deborah, best to download the Power BI file and look inside to see how the features you like are built. - Mark
Very good
Thanks

Hi Mark, can I create a heatmap in PowerBI with a list of all my co-ordinates?
Hi SG, Depends exactly what you mean by a heat map;-). The Mapbox custom visual has some good features for show density distributions. Marrk
Thanks Mark
No worries
