David Smiley created SOLR-4242:
----------------------------------
Summary: A better spatial query parser
Key: SOLR-4242
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4242
Project: Solr
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: query parsers
Reporter: David Smiley
Fix For: 4.2
I've been thinking about how spatial support is exposed to Solr users.
Presently there's the older Solr 3 stuff, most prominently seen via \{!geofilt}
and \{!bbox} done by [~gsingers] (I think). and then there's the Solr 4 fields
using a special syntax parsed by Lucene 4 spatial that looks like
mygeofield:"Intersects(Circle(1 2 d=3))" What's inside the outer parenthesis is
parsed by Spatial4j as a shape, and it has a special (non-standard) syntax for
points, rects, and circles, and then there's WKT. I believe this scheme was
devised by [~ryantxu].
I'd like to devise something that is both comprehensive and is aligned with
standards to the extent that it's prudent. The old Solr 3 stuff is not
comprehensive and not standardized. The newer stuff is comprehensive but only
a little based on standards. And I think it'd be nicer to implement it as a
Solr query parser. I'll say more in the comments.
