Spatial work
Hello folks,
I'm trying to follow all this spatial work going on right now and it's
tough. I'd just like to try it out. I'm on trunk but some of the examples
on the SpatialSearch wiki page error ("Unknown function point in Function
query"). I'm following multiple JIRA issues. Can someone point me in the
right direction?
BTW, I was on Yonik's Lucid webinar last week and I recall he said that
there isn't spatial filtering on the query side, only results side right
now. That surprises me because I thought the SpatialTileField implements
the query side, just as Patrick's Local-Lucene stuff does.
My requirements: I'm looking to do spatial filters (circles, rectangles,
polygons) with distance boosting (optional). The documents have multiple
points each. I'm going to use distributed-search because my entire corpus
is huge.

This error is with the example docs indexed. Nothing more. I might have
forgotten to commit.

I'd start w/ trunk. The only major thing missing, IMO, is filtering support (SOLR-1568)

What's the error? Did you start with a clean index? I haven't actually tried the example in a while.

The confusion is that there are multiple issues, each has multiple patches,
and then there's trunk which seems to already have spatial stuff committed.
So I don't even know where to start.
The error I got was simply entering the very first URL on the SpatialSearch
wiki:
http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=_val_:"recip(dist(2, store,
point(34.0232,-81.0664)),1,1,0)"&fl=*,score
I'm on the very latest trunk from minutes ago, and I did a clean before
building Solr.

Re: Spatial work
Posted by "David Smiley @MITRE.org" <DS...@mitre.org>.
Another question...
How do I query for documents that have a point in a lat-lon box (no
scoring/ranking requirements)? If my documents had no more than one point
then I could use current Solr features with a pair of range queries each
going over a float lat field and a lon field. But my documents have
multiple points so this won't work because the two filters wouldn't
necessarily correspond to the same point. Is there a solution for this
problem in place with the spatial work committed already? If so what would
the query look like for this?
None of the filters here quite address this (but would my filter query was a
circle): http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch#Filtering

SOLR-773 should have all the pointers. I'm slowly but surely working on SOLR-1568. That will add filtering capability.

Not sure on what was said, as I missed the webinar due to travel, but S-1568 will add in filtering capabilities for all of the different spatial types. It will also add a Lat/Lon specific field type.

You will need to write your own field type to represent shapes (or just keep that info at the app level), but it should be feasible. Distro search should just work.
All feedback is definitely welcome. I'm committed to getting a good solution in 1.5, but for me it is slow going due to work commitments. Any and all help is appreciated.
