+Advanced field value conversion using custom mapping types
+==========================================================
+
+.. sectionauthor:: Jan Sorgalla <jsorgalla@googlemail.com>
+
+When creating entities, you sometimes have the need to transform field values
+before they are saved to the database. In Doctrine you can use Custom Mapping 
+Types to solve this (see: :ref:`reference-basic_mapping-custom_mapping_types`).
+
+There are several ways to achieve this: converting the value inside the Type
+class, converting the value on the database-level or a combination of both.
+
+This article describes the third way by implementing the MySQL specific column
+type `Point <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/gis-class-point.html>`_.
+
+The `Point` type is part of the `Spatial extension <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/spatial-extensions.html>`_
+of MySQL and enables you to store a single location in a coordinate space by
+using x and y coordinates.
+
+As you might have already guessed, you can use the Point type to store a 
+longitude/latitude pair to represent a geographic location.
+
+The entity
+----------
+
+We create a simple entity which contains a field ``$point`` which should hold
+a value object ``Point`` representing the latitude and longitude of the position.
+
+The entity class:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+    
+    namespace Geo;
+ 
+    /**
+     * @Entity
+     */
+    class Location
+    {
+        /**
+         * @Column(type="point")
+         *
+         * @var \Geo\Point
+         */
+        private $point;
+
+        /**
+         * @param \Geo\Point $point
+         */
+        public function setPoint(\Geo\Point $point)
+        {
+            $this->point = $point;
+        }
+
+        /**
+         * @return \Geo\Point
+         */
+        public function getPoint()
+        {
+            return $this->point;
+        }
+    }
+
+The point class:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+    
+    namespace Geo;
+
+    class Point
+    {
+        public function __construct($latitude, $longitude)
+        {
+            $this->latitude  = $latitude;
+            $this->longitude = $longitude;
+        }
+
+        public function getLatitude()
+        {
+            return $this->latitude;
+        }
+
+        public function getLongitude()
+        {
+            return $this->longitude;
+        }
+    }
