The ability to display and create Filled Maps (choropleth) using the native SQL Server geometry/geography data types is a must to allow for meaningful geospatial visualization. e.g. Visualize crimes by police beat.

This would be useful to me for plotting utilities that i report on. There are some route map visualizations out there but a multi point vector type option would be great!

What Zack and Jeff said...But seriously, that's probably the one feature keeping our company from moving to Power BI as our main BI/Visualizatoin tool.

Zack's right you know..

This is huge for geospatial industries like O&G, defense, transportation, real estate, etc. Please bump up!

location information technology and data structures have been widely commercially available since at least the 1980s, which if I'm counting right... just ran out of fingers. so, why not? is it unpossible?are place name conceptual tokens sufficient for representing where things are? hint: no, they are not.is it strategery?does most of the stuff we report on in Power BI not have an associated location element?do we not need to understand spatial relationships among our stuff?

Dear Microsoft, Please support this feature for the on-prem data gateway. It a must have feature, and support your own geometry/geography data type from SQL Server seems a very reasonable move. Is needed for C3/C4 classified data wich resides on-premises sql databases.

Displaying SQL geometry/geography data in a Map Visual is a must. We have tonnes of point/line/polygon spatial data we would like to display in BI.
RE: Support SQL Server Geometry/Geography data types in Power BI
Microsoft doesnt even support its own SQL server data type... Crazy!
