Hi!  
Kibana: 7.6.2

Is it possible to filter pre indexed geoshapes using a geopoint? Specifically, we want to know if we can use the geopoints produced from our device to get the geoshapes it went to. Thanks.

Yes. You can use the `geo_match` policy of the enrichment processor to assign id-fields of a pre-indexed document with a `geo_shape` field, to a document with a `geo_point` field. For documentation, see [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-match-enrich-policy-type.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/geo-match-enrich-policy-type.html)

If you already indexed your data, you can use the reindex-api to attach update those point-docs (cf. [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-reindex.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-reindex.html))
