Spatial4j

[Eric Grobler <im...@googlemail.com>]

Hello Solr Community,

We are interested in polygon spatial queries.
I believe that Spatial4j supports it.

Is there a solr branch available that includes Spatial4j?
Will this be part of a furure solr release?

Thank you.

Best Regards
Ericz

Yes, I definitely think so.  At a minimum, I expect there will at least be a
patch or built jar file for you to get going by 1 June.

Hi David,

Thank you for the information.
I am glad to hear that is basically ready to be integrated into lucene.

Regarding your backlog, is it realistic to expect 3304 resolved before June?

Best Regards

Ericz,

See this issue:  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3304
It's just a TODO issue right now but when it's completed, you'll be able to do polygon spatial queries.  All the software is written to do it right now but the missing Solr piece is temporarily at Spatial4j.com.  If you were to try to use it, you would need to build it as of the same date that the Lucene spatial module was added, in LUCENE-3795.  Also, FYI to do polygons, you need a 3rd party jar, JTS.

I'm working through a backlog of things to get to but will get to it.
