--------------------------------------
Summary: TestGeoUtils.testGeoRelations is buggy with irregular
rectangles
Key: LUCENE-6908
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6908
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Nicholas Knize
The {{.testGeoRelations}} method doesn't exactly test the behavior of
GeoPoint*Query as its using the BKD split technique (instead of quad cell
division) to divide the space on each pass. For "large" distance queries this
can create a lot of irregular rectangles producing large radial distortion
error when using the cartesian approximation methods provided by {{GeoUtils}}.
This issue will better divide the space enabling use of the fast cartesian
approximation methods instead of having to convert to an expensive oblate
geometry approach.
