Hi everyone,  
im currently working in a project about aerospace and im considering ELK to store data and do some basic data visualization.  
The data are GPS coordinate, gyro data, speeds and stuff like that.  
Anyone have some advice for me or some consideration i should consider?

Thank you in advance

Hi Samulele,

As you mentioned some data types like for GPS Coordinates, You can use [Geopoint field type](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-point.html) for Lat and Long.

Other type is speed, Gyro data seems like to be metrics which is absolutely possible. Just make sure to define your index mapping correctly (As per your incoming data).
