Can PowerBI Map visualizations show "routing"?

For example, a record has "From" and "To" address info (either street address or lat/long). The Map visual would show a "line" linking the two locations. Like an airline route map. The thickness of the line could be volume/expression related.

Could be used for logistics route map visualizations.

RE: Power BI Map Routing

This functionality is preventing our team from using PowerBI. Much needed in supply chain, transportation and logistics. How do we go about to get this implemented? Please share with your teams to vote for this idea!

I was thinking about this last night, and was hoping it was possible. Would be amazing if this was included in an update some time!

RE: Power BI Map Routing

YES!! I would use all my votes on this if I could! Please add this functionality. This is available in Tableau and currently preventing us from using Power BI. Would love this feature! Please add ASAP the idea was posted in 08 June 2015 already!!
