Hello there,

I’m reaching out today because I’m currently developing a project using Ignition 8.0.12 and planning to update to 8.0.15 stable, I already use the map component in perspective with the markers to set the location of multiples elements, so the problem is I need to import a layer of a GIS map on the map, so:

Is this possible in the map component from perspective?, if not  
is there any tool, module or anything to add this feature?,

if you need any further information, please let me know.

I’m still learning so all help is greatly appreciated.

> From the dev team: Best option is to roll your own GeoJSON. First start by creating a static dataset that works how you want on the Perspective Map component (instructions at the end of the [document](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/uploads/short-url/nToCmeQBnilKMLDMmFGUz2JJOfS.pdf) I posted). We can separately deal with the problem set of dynamically generating the GeoJSON in the appropriate format (queries, scripting, transform, http binding, etc).
