boost results within 250km

How can i gave the more boost to the results within 250km than others
without using result filtering.

Thanks Bill, Actually i have to return the distances for every results that
how far it is from the searched location thats why i am calculating the
distance using  geodist separately and then using that distance for passing
to fl as well as in boosting for 250km.
*.....&distance=geodist($lat,$lon,latlon)&fl=title,$distance&boost=map($distance,0,250,10,1)*

Thanks

Just take geodist and use the map function and send to bf or boost

Thanks Erik, the problem was that i was boost the results closer to the
city via geodist, but i also have to boost cities within 250km extra as
well.

i did it by using the map(distance,0,250,10,1) along with boosting cities
via geodist query, problem solved thanks for replying.

Why do you want to do this? This sounds like an XY problem, you're
asking how to do something specific without explaining why you care,
perhaps there are other ways to do this.

Best,
Erick
