Hi David,

ouch - no, missed that. I'm indexing points and polygons with the 
RecursivePrefixTreeStrategy right now, so simply didn't look properly at the 
BBoxStrategy. (I need to use exact polygons, so that I can make use of the 
ultra-cool 2D facet heatmap feature :-)

So the best way, I guess, would be to index an additional field, using 
BBoxStrategy, that holds just the bounding box?

Cheers,
Rainer

Hi Rainer,

The BBoxStrategy is pretty close to this.  It does assume indexed
rectangles and not other shapes, and it’s limited to one rect value per
field, but perhaps this is fine for you nonetheless?  See
the makeOverlapRatioValueSource() method.  If this feature was non-obvious,
I think I may need to make this more prominent from the BBoxStrategy class
level javadocs.  Did you at least find this strategy?
