             Summary: GeoPointField should cut over to DocValues for boundary 
filtering
                 Key: LUCENE-6712
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6712
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Nicholas Knize


Currently GeoPointField queries only use the Terms Dictionary for ranges that 
fall within and on the boundary of the query shape.  For boundary ranges the 
full precision terms are iterated, for within ranges the postings list is used.

Instead of iterating full precision terms for boundary ranges, this enhancement 
cuts over to DocValues for post-filtering boundary terms. This allows us to 
increase precisionStep for GeoPointField thereby reducing the number of terms 
and the size of the index. This enhancement should also provide a boost in 
query performance since visiting more docs and fewer terms should be more 
efficient than visiting fewer docs and more terms.
