The document discusses Elastic Maps, an application powered by the Elastic Maps Service that allows users to create maps from geo-located data stored in Elasticsearch indexes. It provides an overview of Elastic and the Elastic Stack, introduces the Elastic Maps App which supports use cases like security and observability, and explains that the Elastic Maps Service provides basemap tiles and other map elements. The presentation aims to demonstrate how to create maps using the Elastic Maps App and Service.
