Hi Guys,

I'm dealing with some problem to create a visualization on Kibana.  
I debugged my previous log stash problem to match the good field with Geo Info and apply a filter to use the GeoIPDatabase, now I have the populated fields below in Kibana, working fine:  
t geoip.city\_name  
t geoip.continent\_code  
t geoip.country\_code2  
t geoip.country\_code3  
t geoip.country\_name  
t geoip.ip  
# geoip.latitude  
# geoip.location.lat  
# geoip.location.lon  
# geoip.longitude  
t geoip.postal\_code  
t geoip.region\_code  
t geoip.region\_name  
t geoip.timezone

But I still get the following error when creating the visualization:  
"No Compatible Fields: The "xxx\_index" index pattern does not contain any of the following field types: geo\_point"

I read the following topic : [https://www.elastic.co/blog/geoip-in-the-elastic-stack](https://www.elastic.co/blog/geoip-in-the-elastic-stack)  
But I don't understand why my fields (geoip.location.lat, geoip.location.lon, geoip.longitude, geoip.latitude) are not similar to the ones in the post (location, latitude, longitude), am I missing something ?

Do you have any ideas ?  
Many thanks for your precious help

Kibana version used : 5.4.2

Can you provide your mapping for this index?

This seems like a question for the logstash folks... It doesn't look like any of those fields are of type `geo_point`. Perhaps there's something in the logstash config that you can configure to get the right field type?

Hi,

OK, thanks.  
I thought that because catching of IP and interrogation of the GeoIP database succeeded, it was ok.  
But if I understand you, it's not sufficient.

I'll have a look to logstash to see what I can get.

Thanks for your time
