Have I seen it correct that the only way to do heat maps is via having latitude and longitude or can I do it via addresses?

Thanks

Heat maps supports **IPv4 Range**

The [_IPv4 range_](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.4/search-aggregations-bucket-iprange-aggregation.html) aggregation enables you to specify ranges of IPv4 addresses. Click **Add Range** to add a set of range endpoints. Click the red **(x)** symbol to remove a range.

Elasticsearch does not have a geocoder built in, so if you want to map addresses you will need to integrate that with a geocoder during your document ingestion.
