Rails Geocoder only when lat/long not present

I have a rails for app with geocoder.

I'm important ical files so sometimes they have a lat/long already in the files, sometimes they don't.

How do I tell the model to geocode only if lat/long are not already present? And how do i tell geocoder to use those lat/long and trust them?

geocoded_by :full_address
after_validation :geocode, :if => :address1_changed?

Will geocoder just understand that I have the long/lat if i just set latitude and longitude directly?

You can write a custom conditional. 

after_validation :geocode, if: :address_changed_and_lat_long_blank?


private 

def address_changed_and_lat_long_blank?
  address1_changed? || lat.blank? || long.blank?
end

Hope this helps!
