Hi, I have a problem with mapping latlong in elastic search Here is my input data to elastic search server { "member\_id": "8", "keywords": [ "Sample 2", "Sample 3", "s", "sample" ], "long\_descriptions": "Des", "general\_desc": "Sample", "service\_location": 1, "categories": [ "Entertainment Entertainment Entertainment Entertai", "DJ’s", "Personal Driver", "Transportation Services" ], - "pin": {\* - ``` "location": {* ``` - ``` "lat": 33.8101772,* ``` - ``` "lon": -118.3520389* ``` - ``` }* ``` - },\* "status": 1, "state": true } and when I check the mapping it shows like "member\_id": { "type": "string" }, _"pin": {_ - ``` "properties": {* ``` - ``` "location": {* ``` - ``` "properties": {* ``` - ``` "lat": {* ``` - ``` "type": "double"* ``` - ``` },* ``` - ``` "lon": {* ``` - ``` "type": "double"* ``` - ``` }* ``` - ``` }* ``` - ``` }* ``` - ``` }* }, ``` I am currently using elasticsearch v1.0.1, is this something related to the installation of elasticsearch? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

There is no autodetection of geo\_point. So you need to provide first a mapping before sending the first document.
