Bill Bell commented on SOLR-2125: --------------------------------- /lucene/contrib/spatial/src/java/org/apache/lucene/spatial/DistanceUtils.java - hsin appears to be okay. Good print: System.out.println("x1 = " + x1 + " - " + x1*180/Math.PI + ",y1 = " + y1 + " - " + x2*180/Math.PI + ",x2 = " + x2 + " - " + x2*180/Math.PI + ",y2 = " + y2 + " - " + y2*180/Math.PI + ",radius = " + radius + "\n"); System.out.println("result = " + result + " km\n"); Where is the boundary calculated? > Spatial filter is not accurate > ------------------------------ > > Key: SOLR-2125 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2125 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Build > Affects Versions: 1.5 > Reporter: Bill Bell > > The calculations of distance appears to be off. > Note: "The radius of the sphere to be used when calculating distances on a > sphere (i.e. haversine).
