Q:

GeoJson is not working in Angular using Bing Map

Following is my angular code. I am trying to read Geoson data from file and from variable on bing map but it's not reflecting on map. What's wrong ?
I am referring Bing Map SDK as example.

A:

If you can, add some breakpoints to the code inside the ReadGeoJson function. I suspect that this may have a different meaning in the callback and thus you are not able to access the map and the getSouthAfricaGeoJson function. Try adding var self = this; before the loadModule call and then replace this in the rest of the code in the ReadGeoJson function with self.
