Hi Marco,

When you look in Kibana Management \> Index Patterns and select your index pattern you need to see the type as geo\_point as shown below. But based on the mapping you got back from Elasticsearch for your index I'm thinking you're not going to see that.

This is really a logstash/elasticsearch issue to get logstash mapping correct vs a Kibana issue so I'm probably not the best person to help you solve this issue. Here's some other related issues I found in the Kibana forum, but if these don't help you I recommend you search for geo\_point in the logstash discuss channel.
