I have geo points displaying in my map but I would like to use a label for each location. When I tally a count for each lat/long and display the point on the map , it just displays the {lat,long} values. Is it possible to designate the name of the points on the map? I would like to use one of the columns in the data.

The map in Kibana is primarily to display ES aggregations, not individual data points. The aggregations are done on the geo-location points, and there is no way to automatically associate those points back to their human-readable values.

That sounds like a piece of functionality that would be useful to many people though. Feel free to open a feature request in github, or if you are up to the challenge, submit a PR! 🙂
