Reporting Problem Solved: A how to guide for BC Health Authority Analysts

Do you have some geospatial data you are trying to visualize and want to create a stellar map?

There is no doubt Power BI has some pretty amazing out of the box mapping options to choose from. Not to mention there are tons of other mapping tools you can import such as Mapbox. I will be covering Mapbox in a later blog post but today we are going to talk about a really nifty feature you can use to elevate your maps to the next level - custom tooltips.
