Q: 

Importing GeoPt data with the Google AppEngine BulkLoader YAML

I am uploading data from a csv file with a GeoPt column in it. I have the GeoPt column data in quotes like this: SomeData,"54.321,-123.456",MoreData

My bulkloader.yaml file has an entry like this: - property: location external_name: LOCATION # Type: GeoPt Stats: 1 properties of this type in this kind.

When I do the upload and go to the DataStore viewer I see the location has been uploaded as a string instead of a GeoPt. I'm not sure what the proper way to import this would be. Perhaps it requires an import_transform?
