Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-6480:
-------------------------------------

Depends on the application.  With 64 bits the resolution can be 6.07 meters, 
which seems probably good enough for most.


> Extend Simple GeoPointField Type to 3d

> [LUCENE-6450 | https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6450] proposes a 
> simple GeoPointField type to lucene core. This field uses 64bit encoding of 2 
> dimensional points to construct sorted term representations of GeoPoints 
> (aka: GeoHashing).
> This feature investigates adding support for encoding 3 dimensional 
> GeoPoints, either by extending GeoPointField to a Geo3DPointField or adding 
> an additional 3d constructor.
