J-Team Spatial Solr

[joyce chan <jo...@gmail.com>]

Hi everyone,

I am currently using J-Team Spatial Solr Plugin latest version.
I'm wondering
1. if the SIS project is based on the work from the SSP
2. how do I view the haversine distance in the result after submitting a
query to SSP?

Thank you.
Joyce

Hi Joyce,

Thanks for your email!

Nope it's not. The work currently contributed to SIS is the implementation of a quad tree algorithm, and a location REST service around that quad tree to allow for point-radius and bbox searches on it. The QuadTree can be loaded via GeoRSS URLs.

We are in the process of thinking through more design ideas for the next release of SIS. If you have some ideas, we'd love to hear em'!

Take a look at the README.txt file distributed with the SIS 0.1-incubating release. There are instructions on how to get a SIS WAR file up on Tomcat and start loading GeoRSS data into it. There is also a demo.jsp file included in the WAR that shows you how to integrate the location REST service with Google Maps just as a demonstration.

If you have further questions or are interested in helping out the project via patches, design, etc., let us know. Thanks!

Cheers,;
Chris
