Hello Rushabh,

We have a blog covering exactly this subject [here](https://www.elastic.co/blog/geoip-in-the-elastic-stack). It's a few years old but still worth a look. You might also want to take a look at our latest GeoIP Ingest docs [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.x/geoip-processor.html). If the idea of ingest nodes is new to you, I'd back up and start with our docs around [those](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.x/ingest.html).

Regards,  
Aaron

geoip{  
source =\> "IP"  
fields =\> ["longitude","latitude"]  
target =\> "client.geo.location"  
}

Used above config for geoip as per doc, fetched longitude and latitude and mapped it to a geo\_point(client.geo.location) still i dont see it in maps of kibana it says no results found after i select the field client.geo.location which is a geo\_point

In kibana the field client.geo.location looks like:
