Two months ago at its Ignite 2016 conference, Microsoft introduced the first preview of ArcGIS Maps for Power BI, a new feature created in collaboration with Esri to allow Power BI users to apply advanced styling properties to maps including map themes, detailed color preferences and more. Today, the company announced that the preview is finally available on PowerBI.com:

When creating reports in PowerBI.com, you can start using the ArcGIS Maps for Power BI visual, pin ArcGIS Maps for Power BI to dashboards and share those dashboards with your colleagues. You can also publish your Power BI Desktop files containing the ArcGIS Maps visual and share them within your organization through the Power BI service.

These enhanced mapping capabilities are expected to become available in the Power BI mobile apps soon, the company explained in today’s blog post. You can learn more about ArcGIS Maps for Power BI on Esri’s website.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
