Nicholas Knize commented on LUCENE-7202:
----------------------------------------

I think we could go back and forth on names all day. For example I like 
{{GeodeticPoint}} for Geo3D and specifying the reference datum by way of a 
{{GeoFieldType}}. This way it could be used for a Mars prolate spheroid without 
having to add a {{MarsPoint}} just to change the reference datum (there are 
more than 4000 reference systems). 

I like {{MapPoint}} for the current {{GeoPointField}} raster approach and 
specifying the pixel "order" using {{GeoFieldType}} instead of creating 
separate {{MortonPoint}} {{MoorePoint}} {{HilbertPoint}} fields just to change 
"pixel order" (which only compounds when adding 3D space filling order). 

Bottom line, given the current state of the capability, I'm OK keeping things 
as is for now and keeping this issue open for future consideration. I'm not 
losing sleep over current class names and I don't think anyone is yet confused 
about what does what (regardless of less than ideal names)?

> There are three different spatial implementations circulating at the moment, 
> and nobody seems happy with the naming of them.  For each implementation 
> strategy, we need both a module name and a descriptive technology name that 
> we can use to distinguish one from the other.  I would expect the following 
> people to have an interest in this process: [~rcmuir], [~dsmiley], 
> [~mikemccand], etc.
