Hi !,

New to ELK so don't understand a bunch of thing here. I have a set of data in a csv with following fields:

Longitude, Latitude, Location1  
-76.67759, 39.29402, "(39.2940200000, -76.6775900000)"

I am trying to convert longitude and latitude to geo\_ip data type. Below is my conf file. It isn't working. Please let me know what am I missing. I am using ES 6.1 / logstash 6.1

filter {  
csv {  
separator =\> ","  
columns =\> ["crimedate","crimetime","crimecode","location","description","inside\_outside","weapon","post","district","neighborhood","longitude","latitude","location1","premise","total\_incidents"]

}  
date {  
match =\> ["crimedate", "mm/dd/yy"]  
match =\> ["crimetime", "HH:mm:ss"]  
}  
mutate {convert =\> ["total\_incidents", "integer"]}  
mutate {convert =\> ["longitude", "float"]}  
mutate {convert =\> ["latitude", "float"]}

```
            mutate {
                            add_field => ["[geoip][longitude]", "%{lon}" ]
                            add_field => ["[geoip][latitude]", "%{lat}" ]
                                            }

    }

```

output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> "[http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200)"  
index =\> "md\_crime"  
document\_type =\> "md\_crime\_data"  
}  
stdout {codec =\> rubydebug}  
}

- Have you checked out [https://www.elastic.co/blog/geoip-in-the-elastic-stack](https://www.elastic.co/blog/geoip-in-the-elastic-stack)?
- Please show an example event produced by your stdout output.
- Have you uploaded an index template that makes sure the md\_crime index get the right mappings?
