Elasticsearch Geo_point query not returning results

Question

I am trying to fetch all the documents within a radius of a particular location (lat,long). Here's the mapping with location as the geo_point:

{
  "mappings": {
    "_doc": {
      "properties": {
        "color": {
          "type": "long"
        },
        "createdTime": {
          "type": "date"
        },
        "location": {
          "properties": {
            "lat": {
              "type": "float"
            },
            "lon": {
              "type": "float"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

And here's my query

{
  "aggregations": {
    "weather_agg": {
      "geo_distance": {
        "field": "location",
        "origin": "41.12,-100.77",
        "unit": "km",
        "distance_type": "plane",
        "ranges": [
          {
            "from": 0,
            "to": 100
          }
        ]
      },
      "aggregations": {
        "timerange": {
          "filter": {
            "range": {
              "createdTime": {
                "gte": "now-40h",
                "lte": "now"
              }
            }
          },
          "aggregations": {
            "weather_stats": {
              "stats": {
                "field": "color"
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

I am getting 0 hits for this. My question is whether there's something wrong with the mapping or the query ? We recently migrated to a newer cloud version and there's a possibility that something broke because of that.

Answer 1

Instead of mapping lat and long as float you should geo-point mapping
