Description

Hello. Does anybody know if i can find all these information starting from a geopoint field ? city country region

I know that logstash can find several information like these using an IP and maxmind, but i presently do not have access to IP address, only a geopoint: latitude and longitude.

Thanks

Research direction
First, check the Logstash documentation and existing filter plugins for any that can reverse geocode from latitude/longitude to city/country/region. If none exist, consider writing a custom filter plugin that queries a geocoding API (e.g., OpenStreetMap Nominatim) or uses a local database. Look at the structure of existing filter plugins in the repository, such as the geoip filter (lib/logstash/filters/geoip.rb) for reference. The issue has no assignee or PR, so it is available for implementation.
