This also meant an additional storage space requirement with increasing records. <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.maplytics.com\/features\/plot-records-on-map\/plot-from-file\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Plot from File<\/a> eliminates this. Now, you can instantly upload an external file (like an Excel spreadsheet) and plot its records directly on a map without adding them to Dynamics 365.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Applications of Plot from File<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Let\u2019s break it down with some real-world applications.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>\n<h6><strong> Market Research &amp; Business Expansion<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Imagine you are a retail business planning to open a new store. You have a spreadsheet with competitor locations, customer surveys, and high-traffic areas. Instead of blindly choosing a location, you can now plot all this data onto a map, overlaying it with your existing store locations to find the best expansion spot.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h6><strong> Sales Strategy &amp; Lead Targeting<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Your sales team has just received a list of potential leads from a conference in an Excel file. Instead of entering each contact into CRM, you can use Plot from File to visualize where these leads are located, group them by region, and plan sales visits efficiently\u2014all in just a few clicks.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h6><strong> Field Service Optimization<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A logistics company frequently receives third-party vendor lists for delivery locations. With this feature, they can instantly map out delivery stops, analyze <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/map-optimize-route-dynamics-crm\/\">routes<\/a>, and ensure efficient coverage without importing data into CRM every single time.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h6><strong> Event Planning &amp; Site Selection<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In case you are an Event person planning an event, upload a file containing the addresses of potential venues, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/point-of-interest-search\/\">nearby<\/a> hotels, and transport hubs. By plotting these points on a map, you can visually assess the best location based on accessibility and convenience for attendees.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h6><strong> Analyzing Survey Data &amp; Public Information<\/strong><\/h6>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Government agencies and NGOs often work with public datasets such as census data or survey responses. Instead of manually entering thousands of addresses, they can upload an Excel file, map the data, and instantly see trends, clusters, and key areas of focus.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is the Science Behind This?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s as simple as it sounds. All you need is an external file (Excel or CSV format) with location-based data such as addresses or latitude\/longitude coordinates. Upload the file into Maplytics, and watch as the records instantly appear on a fully interactive map inside Dynamics 365.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22431 size-full\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000; padding: 1px; margin: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2.png\" alt=\"Plot Excel Records on a Map without adding them to Dynamics 365 \" width=\"2560\" height=\"1156\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2.png 2560w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2-300x135.png 300w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2-1024x462.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2-768x347.png 768w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2-1536x694.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-2-2048x925.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can check out the complete technical working of \u2018Plot From File\u2019 in <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.maplytics.com\/features\/plot-records-on-map\/plot-from-file\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Maplytics\u2019s Technical Docs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>What are the Benefits of Using \u2018Plot from File\u2019<\/strong><\/h5>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Skip the CRM import process and plot data instantly.<\/li>\n<li>Visualize external data alongside your existing CRM data.<\/li>\n<li>No need to permanently store records in Dynamics 365.<\/li>\n<li>Optimize travel routes and resource allocation based on mapped data.<\/li>\n<li>Use real-time visuals to analyze trends and make data-driven decisions.<\/li>\n<li>Store the modified data back in Excel for future use.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22430 size-full\" style=\"border: 1px solid #000000; padding: 1px; margin: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3.png\" alt=\"Plot Excel Records on a Map without adding them to Dynamics 365 \" width=\"2560\" height=\"1152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3.png 2560w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3-300x135.png 300w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3-1024x461.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3-768x346.png 768w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3-1536x691.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.maplytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Plot-Excel-Records-on-a-Map-without-adding-them-to-Dynamics-365-3-2048x922.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>Maplytics&#8217; Plot from File feature isn\u2019t just about convenience\u2014it\u2019s about empowering businesses to make smarter, faster decisions by bridging the gap between external data and CRM insights.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What\u2019s More?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Maplytics is like water that can be molded into any role.
