Introducing MicroStrategy Geospatial Services

Starting with the release of Strategy ONE (March 2024), dossiers are also known as dashboards.

Description

Strategy is excited to announce the launch of Strategy Geospatial Services, an advanced mapping solution powered by Mapbox.
 
Strategy Geospatial Services takes our mapping capabilities a step further and covers twice as many use cases as our current out-of-the-box mapping solution. It is powered by Mapbox’s vector maps. Vector Maps are an advanced approach to mapping where all the features from the map are rendered faster and smoother, providing an exceptional user experience. When creating new dossiers or dashboards, users can now build beautiful map visualizations, analyze global location data, and perform advanced geospatial analysis in just a few clicks.
