Map Charts Coming To Excel

Today, we’re taking a break from non-stop coverage of bad guys and threats posed to your organization. Microsoft announced a number of new products and updates during Ignite this week, and we’re glad to see this new feature coming to Excel through Office 365.

Map Charts takes a table of spatial data and generates colorized map of the results. There’s no GPS, and it won’t give you the same sort of functionality you can find in ArcGIS and certain third-party add-ons, but this is a really nice feature that’s finally included in the base package of Excel.

Map Charts will be introduced at the end of the year in Office 365. RWA is a Microsoft Partner, and when you’re ready to upgrade from an older or out-of-date version of Office, we’ll be glad to help.
