Power Map filter option missing

Question

I have an end user who is more of a power user in the company.  They're using Power
Maps add-in for excel and are expecting this
filter option but its currently not displayed. I have run all MS updates after the add-in was installed as well as a restart to the system. 
I have also found other articles about manually updating office but
those options aren't available in our version of office (pro plus x64 15.0.4675.1000).  The registry keys are not even there. 
I deployed our MS office via GPO startup script and MSI file. 
Has anyone run into this or have even a hint as to what may be wrong?

Hi k4rizma858,
According to your description, you said"I deployed our MS office via GPO startup script and MSI file. ", it seems you’re using Microsoft Office 2013. I regret to tell you, Office 2013 doesn’t support the filter function of Power Map,
and Power Map is an unsupported add-in in Office 2013. Please read this content:
https://support.office.com/en-in/article/Power-Map-for-Excel-82d65bd7-70c9-48a3-8356-6b0e82472d74
Microsoft updates to Excel Power Map with two big features, Power Map Filtering and Custom Maps in September 2014, and the features of Power Map are only enhanced for Office 365. You can get these messages from these links:

Thus, if you really need to use the filter function of a map. You can use the Office 365 to fulfill your needs or you can try to use Bing Maps in Office 2013.
Hope it’s helpful.
