Read MoreIn the first meetup session for 2021 we took a look at maps, both within Power BI and in Carto. Alice Drummond (DiscoverEI) introduced us to James Dales' Icon Map and the wonderful functionality we have built into it, before Idris Syed (City of Melbourne) introduced the MapBox API and how to use it. Lastly we had Chandni Gupta (Mosaic Insights) provide a great demo on how to use the Carto mapping platform, where she built from scratch a really cool example!
We hope you enjoy it and learn a few things about mapping options out there!
