We’ve talked about Power Maps (“The Artist Formerly Known As Geo Flow”) before (e.g. see Geo With The Flow), but hot off the press, we thought we’d pass on the latest update. Microsoft has announced that Power Map Preview, its final “V1 Preview”, has just been posted on their Download Center.

This latest release contains new features such Region Chart type, Flat Map and the ability to create videos from your Power Map tours. Further, this preview supports English, Japanese, Spanish and Arabic versions of Office Pro Plus 2013 (this version of Excel is a requirement).

For those who like to play, the Power Map Preview for Excel 2013 may be downloaded from here.
