MongoDB Stored Procedure Equivalent

Question

I am having a large CSV file containing a list of stores, in which one of the fields is ZipCode. I have a separate MongoDB database called ZipCodes, which stores the latitude and longitude for any given zip code.

For each insert, I need to look up the latitude and longitude for that store and save that as well.

I am not too familiar with the concept of Map/Reduce, but would that be applicable here? 

Thank you!
