[jira] Created: (SOLR-1578) Develop a Spatial Query Parser

Develop a Spatial Query Parser
------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1578
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1578
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
             Fix For: 1.5


Given all the work around spatial, it would be beneficial if Solr had a query parser for dealing with spatial queries.  For starters, something that used geonames data or maybe even Google Maps API would be really useful.  Longer term, a spatial grammar that can robustly handle all the vagaries of addresses, etc. would be really cool.

Jason Rutherglen commented on SOLR-1578:
----------------------------------------

GBase http://code.google.com/apis/base/docs/2.0/query-lang-spec.html (Locations section at the bottom of the page) has a query syntax for spatial queries (i.e. @+40.75-074.00 + 5mi)
