I discounted geonames to start with but it actually looks pretty good. I may be stretching the limit of my question here, but say I did go with geonames, if I go back to my model and add a bit:
Search for "London"----->Convert "London to Long/Lat"----->Send Query to Solr>----->Return Query> Since my main website is coded in Python, but Solr works in Java, if I was to create or use an existing script to allow me to convert "London" to Long/Lat, would it make more sense for this operation to be done in Python or Java? In Python it would integrate better with my website, but in Java it would integrate better with Solr. Also would one language be more suitable or faster for this kind of operation? Again, I might be pushing the boundaries of what I can ask on here, but if anyone can chime in with their opinion I would really appreciate it. ~ James -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Searching-by-location-What-do-I-send-to-Solr-tp3959296p3960666.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
