I can't figure out why kibana wont plot my location from geoIP (logstash filter plugin)  
**my index mapping:**

> ```
> "mappings": {
> "geoip": {
> "properties": {
> "geoip": {
> "properties": {
> "location": {
> "type": "geo_point"
> }
> }
> }
> }
> }
> },
> 
> ```

Data exist and look like its recognized as geo\_point :

but nothing on the map...

that looks OK.

Did you press the `play` button on the visualization (top right).

Also, make sure you are getting data back (e.g. you have data corresponding to the global time-range/filter). You can use the inspector (little grey arrow, bottom left) to see if you have any data in your response from Elasticsearch.

thx for the reply. Yeah I did hit the play button and tried with multiple map type/setting. as for the time range , I used the same one where I confirmed I could see some data in the discover tab.  
I didnt know the inspector existed, I got this as a response:

> ```
> {
> "took": 4,
> "timed_out": false,
> "_shards": {
> "total": 10,
> "successful": 10,
> "skipped": 0,
> "failed": 0
> },
> "hits": {
> "total": 2269,
> "max_score": 0,
> "hits": []
> },
> "aggregations": {
> "filter_agg": {
> "2": {
> "buckets": []
> },
> "doc_count": 0
> }
> },
> "status": 200
> }
> 
> ```

So I guess none of my geoip matched the query ? that would not match what i have as data
