Grant Ingersoll commented on LUCENE-2646:
-----------------------------------------
We have geohash already, tiling is a different approach
> Iimplement the Military Grid Reference System for tiling
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: LUCENE-2646
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2646
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: contrib/spatial
> Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
>
> The current tile based system in Lucene is broken. We should standardize on
> a common way of labeling grids and provide that as an option. Based on
> previous conversations with Ryan McKinley and Chris Male, it seems the
> Military Grid Reference System
> (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_grid_reference_system) is a good
> candidate for the replacement due to its standard use of metric tiles of
> increasing orders of magnitude (1, 10, 100, 1000, etc.)
