Such that this integration use algorithms for identifying the exact location, but at times it&#8217;s a best guess. Moreover, if Power BI tries, but can&#8217;t create the map visualization on its own, then it enlists the help of Bing Maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It ay require you to update your firewall for allowing access to the URLs Bing uses for geocoding including &#8211; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>https:\/\/dev.virtualearth.net\/REST\/V1\/Locations<\/li><li>https:\/\/platform.bing.com\/geo\/spatial\/v1\/public\/Geodata<\/li><li>https:\/\/www.bing.com\/api\/maps\/mapcontrol<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Steps to increase the likelihood of correct Geo-coding<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>First, you should have access to the dataset itself. <\/li><li>The second set of tips is things you can do in Power BI if you don&#8217;t have access to the dataset.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Power BI service and Power BI Desktop send Bing the geo data it needs to create the map visualization. This may include the data in the&nbsp;<strong>Location<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Latitude<\/strong>, and&nbsp;<strong>Longitude<\/strong>&nbsp;buckets of the visual&#8217;s field well.
