This is supported by CKAN but you may need to turn on the Geospatial
features, see this extension: https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-spatial

In particular you just need to add an "extra field" named "spatial" with a
geojson value like:

{"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[2.05827, 49.8625],[2.05827,
55.7447], [-6.41736, 55.7447], [-6.41736, 49.8625], [2.05827,
49.8625]]]}

{ "type": "Point", "coordinates": [-3.145,53.078] }

You can already add these though nothing will show up until the spatial
extension is enabled. See
https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-spatial#geo-indexing-your-datasets for more!
