​About This Session

​Data teams excel at answering what happened and when, but many important questions also depend on where.

​This session explores how spatial thinking extends analytics workflows in Microsoft Fabric and Power BI using Esri-powered GeoAnalytics capabilities available across the Fabric ecosystem. You will see how location context enriches existing datasets, surfaces patterns that are invisible in tables and standard charts, and supports better decisions across operations, risk, and customer analytics.

​We will walk through practical scenarios that connect Fabric data with ArcGIS data and map visuals, all from a BI-first perspective.

​No GIS background required. If you already work in Fabric or Power BI, this session will show how to add location-based insight to your analytics workflow using the tools you already know.

​Who Should Attend

​Students, early-career professionals, and practitioners working in data, analytics, and cloud platforms are all welcome here.
