Kibana4 and geohash

[florentvaldelievre]

Hello,

I am trying to understand what is wrong with my geohash configuration as the point displayed on the map is not at the correct location. It should be in Nice, France

Mapping:

"logstash-2015.05.13": {
    "mappings": {
        "fluentd": {
            "properties": {
                "@timestamp": {
                    "type": "date",
                    "format": "dateOptionalTime"
                },
                "geo.coordinates": {
                    "type": "geo_point",
                    "geohash": true
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Index example

{
  "_index": "logstash-2015.05.13",
  "_type": "fluentd",
  "_id": "AU1LsDc932FcdThT2yaW",
  "_score": null,
  "_source": {
    "geo.coordinates": [
      43.713600158691406,
      7.259500026702881
    ]
  }
}

Any idea ?

ES requires lat then long, see the docs for more info. Are you sure your values are in the right order?

Oh! You pointed me to the right direction. geohash is the other way around when using an array:

Quoted from the doc "Everybody gets caught at least once: string geo-points are "latitude,longitude", while array geo-points are [longitude,latitude]—the opposite order!" :)

Thank you!
