Description
The Create GeoPoint from Latitude/Longitude activity generates a new GeoPoint column in POINT(longitude latitude) format using two existing columns—one for latitude and one for longitude. This is useful for enabling downstream geospatial transformations and compatibility with spatial tools.
Use case: You have separate Latitude and Longitude fields in your dataset and want to create a standardized GeoPoint column in WKT format for use in mapping, geofencing, or location-based analysis.
