How do I configure Kibana to use the TileMap?

I am using Kibana 4.5.4

My logstash config file is as follows

> geoip {  
> source =\> "clientip"  
> target =\> "geoip"  
> database =\> "/etc/logstash/GeoLiteCity.dat"  
> add\_field =\> ["[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][longitude]}" ]  
> add\_field =\> ["[geoip][coordinates]", "%{[geoip][latitude]}" ]  
> }  
> mutate {  
> convert =\> ["[geoip][coordinates]", "float"]  
> }

However, In the kibana tile map it says:

> No Compatible Fields: The "iot\_logs" index pattern does not contain any of the following field types: geo\_point

Is there a different way I am suppose to configure the tile map?

I followed this tutorial

This is more of a Logstash question, but I'm guessing the filter you have right now just giving you some `float` fields, but nothing that's mapped with `geo_point` type, which is needed for Kibana TileMap visualization.

It would help if you could share the mapping you currently have. What is the output if you do: `curl -XGET localhost:9200/iot_logs/_mapping` ?
