$geo - Geolocation Coordinates fields

This keyword marks the field as having geolocation coordinates values - latitude and longitude. This is useful for when there is a need to insert google maps links or when creating map visualizations with the help of Kibana (opens new window).

Usage:

$geo

When we then create a new instance of a definition that has a field built with $geo, the CoB platform is able to recognize the value inserted as geolocation coordinates values.

Examples:
