I have lots of documents that contain zip-codes. I want to visualize the data on a map so i need to add a geo location. To achieve this i created an index that contains coordinates for every zip-code. How can i enrich the my documents with geo locations provided by the new index? I wanted to create a pipeline that updates the documents but it seems like there is no way to achieve this in elasticsearch 7.3. Is it possible to use the script processor to gather a field of a document from a different index or do i have to update to 7.6 to be able to use the 'enrich' processor for this job? ---

If you want to use enrich processor, you need to upgrade. Otherwise you can use logstash for this. I wrote 3 posts about that.

Thanks, I've already read this Post and I also saw the other ones about logstash. My question is if it is possible to achieve that without using logstash or upgrade to 7.6 ---

When creating a Map it is possible to use "[Term join](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/terms-join.html)" to combine the index with coordinates with anotherone that contains the data ---

If you just want to visualize multiple sources of data on the same map, then [the solution you shared](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/how-to-enrich-documents-with-geo-data/221276/4) will definitely work. Thank you for sharing it. ---
