Grant Ingersoll commented on SOLR-1568:
---------------------------------------

bq. Are we filtering by bounding box or by distance, sorting by distance, or 
boosting by distance? 

I see this as a filtering only issue.  To me, all the other capabilities other 
than filtering by a Spatial Tile Field are already covered through normal Solr 
capabilities, so I don't see much benefit to inventing new syntax and more code 
to maintain even if it is slightly easier for the app designer to consume.

> Given an index with spatial information (either as a geohash, 
> SpatialTileField (see SOLR-1586) or just two lat/lon pairs), we should be 
> able to pass in a filter query that takes in the field name, lat, lon and 
> distance and produces an appropriate Filter (i.e. one that is aware of the 
> underlying field type for use by Solr. 
> The interface _could_ look like:
> {code}
> &fq={!sfilt dist=20}location:49.32,-79.0
> {code}
> or it could be:
> {code}
> &fq={!sfilt lat=49.32 lat=-79.0 f=location dist=20}
> {code}
> or:
> {code}
> &fq={!sfilt p=49.32,-79.0 f=location dist=20}
> {code}
> or:
> {code}
> &fq={!sfilt lat=49.32,-79.0 fl=lat,lon dist=20}
> {code}
