Hi

Probably this can help you:

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/regionmap.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/regionmap.html)

> **[Region Maps and Gauges in Kibana
	  	 | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/blog/region-maps-gauge-kibana)**
>
> With version 5.5, two new visualization types made their way into Kibana, Region Maps and Gauge charts. Admittingly, our attentive readers may interject that calling them “new” is somewhat overstating...

This link shows you how to do custom region maps:

Hope this helps

You need not feed in the geo ip details, if its present in the data, it will automatically pick it up. Make sure you are on the exact time range where the data exists. Also make sure that the data you are playing around with has the geo information. You should be able to plot the co-ordinate map or Region map based on that data.
