Hi,  
I followed [this](https://github.com/a3ilson/pfelk) guide in order to have PFSense logs in ELK  
I do see the enrichment is working as expected.  
However when trying to create a Geo Heat Map on Kibana  
I get the following alert "No Compatible Fields: The "pfsense-\*" index pattern does not contain any of the following field types: geo\_point"

Can someone help me debug this?

Kibana Version: 6.4.1

Logstash config  
if ![geoip] and [src\_ip] !~ /^(10.|192.168.|172.16.)/ {  
geoip {  
add\_tag =\> ["GeoIP"]  
source =\> "src\_ip"  
database =\> "/etc/logstash/GeoLite2-City.mmdb"  
}

This likely because geoip and src\_ip are not mapped as [geo\_point](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-point.html).

To verify, view your [index mappings in elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-get-mapping.html). What are geoip and src\_ip mapped as?
