```
# add a geometry column
sqlite-utils add-geometry-column [db name] [table name] geometry --type POINT --srid 4326

# add a point for each row to geometry column
sqlite-utils --load-extension=spatialite [db name] 'update [table name] SET Geometry=MakePoint(longitude, latitude, 4326);'

I'd actually move them to a dedicated module (call it `sqlite_utils.conversions` or something), because it's different from other utilities. Maybe they even take configuration, or they're composable.

```python
from sqlite_utils.conversions import LongitudeLatitude

db[""places""].insert(
    {
        ""name"": ""London"",
        ""lng"": -0.118092,
        ""lat"": 51.509865,
    },
    conversions={""point"": LongitudeLatitude(""lng"", ""lat"")},
)
```

I would definitely use that for every CSV I get with lat/lng columns where I actually need GeoJSON.","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1124731464,
