    Hello.

    Anyone knows if Big Query connections with MapInfo is on the product roadmap?

    Or maybe already possible?

    Thanks

    Maria

    Hi Maria

    I haven't tried this but I assume you can connect to Big Query using their ODBC driver and pull data into MapInfo Pro.

    Are you just looking to pull in data from Big Query to visualize/analyze it? 

    Thanks

    Hi Peter.

    Yes that would be the case.

    I would suggest giving the ODBC approach a go and see how that works.

    I have earlier been able to connect successfully to Hadoop through ODBC.

    Of course, you need to be careful what you try to pull down as there can be a substantial amount of data.
