Good question. Yes you can, but you need to be a little sneaky.
The Google Maps field type stores all information in the database field in the following format:
So if you have only lats & lngs, I'd import the data into the fields in this format:
- simply omit the address
- "4" is an arbitrary zoom level. I think Google Maps offer something like 1-9 or something...
I think that'll work!
