Chris Male commented on LUCENE-2139:
------------------------------------
Nicolas,
Its true that Solr does not support spatial tier search but this was due to the
code in spatial lucene being so buggy. I think everybody is happy to revisit
the issue and add spatial tier support to Solr if we can come up with a clear,
test and bug-free underlying implementation.
I think whatever work we do we should do in a spatial module.
Simon,
Perhaps we should @deprecate the contrib in 3x, nuke in 4x and start up the
module?
> Cleanup and Improvement of Spatial Contrib
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-2139
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2139
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/spatial
> Affects Versions: 3.1
> Reporter: Chris Male
> Assignee: Simon Willnauer
> Attachments: LUCENE-2139-Java5Only.patch, LUCENE-2139-svnScript.sh,
> LUCENE-2139.patch
>
>
> The current spatial contrib can be improved by adding documentation, tests,
> removing unused classes and code, repackaging the classes and improving the
> performance of the distance filtering. The latter will incorporate the
> multi-threaded functionality introduced in LUCENE-1732.
> Other improvements involve adding better support for different distance
> units, different distance calculators and different data formats (whether it
> be lat/long fields, geohashes, or something else in the future).
> Patch to be added soon.
