Step 1: Add the required shp and dbf files in your project’s root folder or subfolder, right-click on the added files, select Properties, and select the EmbeddedResource option under Build Action.
Step 2: Add the SfMaps control in your layout and initialize the MapShapeLayer as shown in the following code sample.
