Hi folks, If anyone reading this is interested in how to use the spatial module in Lucene, you might be interested in a recent two-part blog post by Steven Citron-Pousty on the OpenShift blog: https://www.openshift.com/blogs/free-text-and-spatial-search-with-spatial4j-and-lucene-spatial https://www.openshift.com/blogs/create-a-spatial-rest-service-using-lucene-spatial-and-jee
This is in addition to existing documentation like the javadocs: http://lucene.apache.org/core/4_5_0/spatial/index.html -- which references SpatialExample.java: https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/lucene/spatial/src/test/org/apache/lucene/spatial/SpatialExample.java?view=markup In addition, this page from Solr's wiki should be useful even if you aren't using Solr: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrAdaptersForLuceneSpatial4 Cheers, David Smiley
