Bill Bell commented on SOLR-4242: --------------------------------- spatialdist() ? We really need this. > 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: 4.3 > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
