Visual Fusion is enterprise mashup software that allows users to integrate Excel files and other data sources into interactive applications using SharePoint. It geocodes data from Excel files so the information can be combined and visualized on maps with other enterprise data. Excel files to be integrated need to include fields for description, title, location, and Visual Fusion will automatically add latitude, longitude, and geocoding status fields. Users can then style and filter the geocoded Excel data within Visual Fusion applications.

- Visual Fusion Experience is a set of rich user interface components available in Microsoft Silverlight. They can be deployed as SharePoint Web Parts or as standard web page components. As some 80% of enterprise information can be shown in the context of geography, VFX uses a map and timeline as the primary metaphors for interacting with, exploring, and viewing enterprise information. Visual Fusion makes it easy for users to upload Excel files into SharePoint and then geocode the items within each Excel file so that they can be combined with other enterprise and cloud-based data in a highly visual composite application. Often it is advantageous to apply advanced filtering and styling to Excel file content for enhanced communication to the end user, and in these cases Visual Fusion Server (VFS) connects to Excel files stored in SharePoint in order to run the items in that file through the VFS styling engine. In this way both Excel files are greatly enhanced as communication tools to users.
