Hi

I have some ESRI files. I would like to use them within Splunk (geofencing).
I found this document: https://www.splunk.com/blog/2015/10/01/use-custom-polygons-in-your-choropleth-maps.html

But it is for .KLM files. The files that I have are: .dbf, .prj, .sbn, .sbx, .shp, .shx

Any oideas on how to insert those files into Splunk for geofencing?

check this link, you have to work with the lookupfiles and you can store them into the search app for instance inside the lookup folder
