Description
In my schema I have:
"inttimesecs","v1","v2","v3","v4","gps_lat","gps_lon"
1657997362,414.7,417.0,416.8,417.0,33.10318374633789,-117.24636840820312
I get errors saying "Float types are not supported. Use Decimal types instead"
Well, I like my float types! Perhaps I can get around V1, V2 and multiply by 10 to get rid of decimal but I don't want to do that with lat/lon where decimal places are variable, and I don't want to treat them like strings since then I could not do even rectangular geofencing.
Although perhaps outside the scope of this tutorial: any ideas are appreciated!

Research direction
The report names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify whether the desired outcome is native float support or guidance for converting latitude and longitude, then define acceptance criteria for variable-precision coordinates and the supported behavior.
