[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-6450) Add simple encoded GeoPointField
type to core
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6450?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14527148#comment-14527148 ]
David Smiley commented on LUCENE-6450:
--------------------------------------
Can you please direct me to the "luceneutil" and geo benchmark? I'm curious what that's about.
The numbers look nice. Small indexes and fast index time :-) It'd be interesting to try GeoHashPrefixTree, which will have smaller indexes than Quad. I'll check out your code shortly.

> At the moment all spatial capabilities, including basic point based indexing and querying, require the lucene-spatial module. The spatial module, designed to handle all things geo, requires dependency overhead (s4j, jts) to provide spatial rigor for even the most simplistic spatial search use-cases (e.g., lat/lon bounding box, point in poly, distance search). This feature trims the overhead by adding a new GeoPointField type to core along with GeoBoundingBoxQuery and GeoPolygonQuery classes to the .search package. This field is intended as a straightforward lightweight type for the most basic geo point use-cases without the overhead.
> The field uses simple bit twiddling operations (currently morton hashing) to encode lat/lon into a single long term. The queries leverage simple multi-phase filtering that starts by leveraging NumericRangeQuery to reduce candidate terms deferring the more expensive mathematics to the smaller candidate sets.
