# is valid

This block is part of the [`geopoint`](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/geopoint) group and was last modified in core [`v15.0.0`](https://docs.rual.nl/core-versions/150000).

Checks whether the given geo point has a valid latitude and longitude.

- geo point required `geo_point`

- valid `condition` True when the geo point has numeric lat/lon within valid ranges.

A typical wiring for [is valid](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/geopoint/geo_point_validate): [create](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/geopoint/geo_point_lat_lng_to_point) feeds the `geo_point` pin; the `valid` out pin feeds [branch](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/flow/branch).
