             Summary: GeoPath behavior with indentical points
                 Key: LUCENE-8236
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8236
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: modules/spatial3d
            Reporter: Ignacio Vera


GeoPath has the current behavior:
 * When provided a path with two consecutive identical points: In all cases it 
generates an {{IllegalArgumentException}} because it tries to build a plane 
with those two points.
 * When provided a path with two consecutive numerical identical points: In 
case of {{GeoStandardPath}} it throws an {{IllegalArgumentException}} because 
the path is too short. The case of {{GeoDegeneratePath}} is more complicated as 
it builds the path but the plane can be bogus. In some cases points on the 
other side of the world can be "In Set".

I think the factory should filter out these points, in the same way it is done 
for {{GeoPolygon}}. If this is not the desired behavior then the factory  
should throw a consistent {{IllegalArgumentException}} in all cases.
