Hi, I’m definitively not sure about that too. Could you try to create a Weather instance as Weather.objects.create(latitude=xx, longitude=xx) and see if it works and set correctly automatically the latlong value, then it’s likely a DRF issue. Otherwise, you may want to discuss that on the django user mailing list first.
