Hi @aaditya_alekar

Your points are there, but there are somewhere in Antarctica.

 ![39](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/3/4/34753fdd12a67e1def4923e3ba253564c6b5f515.jpeg)

It seems like you flipped lat and lon in the transform:

```auto
transform: [
{
type: geopoint
projection: projection
fields: ["lat", "lon"]
}

```

should do the trick.
