I need to map lat, long to geo-point. I stream data every 10 seconds from a website. I get only first occurrence of the "position" from json and only I take lat, long and timestamp. I did mapping and when I run my code the data is streaming but can't see the mapping in Kibana.

Here is my code.

```auto
import time,schedule
import requests
from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch 
import warnings
import sys
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore")
import logging
import json

log_format = "%(asctime)s::%(levelname)s::%(name)s::"\
             "%(filename)s::%(lineno)d::%(message)s"
logging.basicConfig(stream=sys.stdout, level=logging.INFO, format=log_format)

URL = "https://www.n2yo.com/rest/v1/satellite/positions/25544/41.702/-76.014/0/2/&apiKey=key"

def connectES():
	es = Elasticsearch('http://ip:port',timeout=600)
	logging.info('Step 1: Connect to Elasticsearch: OK!!')
	return es
	
es = connectES()

settings = {
             'settings': {
                         'number_of_shards':1,
                         'number_of_replicas':0
                         },
              'mappings': {
                          'properties':{
                                   'satlatitude':{'type':'geo_point'},
                                   'satlongitude':{"type":'geo_point'},
                                   'timestamp':{'type':'float'}
                                           
                                        }
                          }
           }
es.indices.create(index = "satellitepositions", ignore = 400, body=settings)

def collect_data():
  data = requests.get(url = URL).json() 
  del data['positions'][1]
  
  my_dict={}
  my_dict["satlatitude"]= data["positions"][0]["satlatitude"]
  my_dict["satlongitude"]= data["positions"][0]["satlongitude"]
  my_dict["timestamp"]= data["positions"][0]["timestamp"]

  new_data = json.dumps(my_dict)
  
  es.index(index='satellitepositions', doc_type='satelitepos', body=new_data)
  
  logging.info('Step 2: Data streaming and saving to Elasticsearch : OK!!')
    
  
schedule.every(10).seconds.do(collect_data)

while True:
  schedule.run_pending()
  time.sleep(1) 

```

Output in Kibana:
