Hi Robert, First, for the basics of the spatial module, see SpatialExample.java in the tests area. It doesn't include a polygon example but shows the concepts of a SpatialContext, Shape, and SpatialStrategy which are the key abstractions.
The default SpatialContext implementation doesn't handle polygons -- not yet any way. So use JtsSpatialContext.GEO or some other configured variant created via JtsSpatialContextFactory and add JTS to your classpath (LGPL licensed, by the way). With that, you can create polygons parsed from WKT or GeoJSON -- see the SpatialContext.getFormats().getWktReader() for example. That'll produce a Shape instance parsed from a polygon WKT string you give it. Then re-aquaint yourself with SpatialExample.java to see how to index a Shape and how to query by a Shape. An important difference with the example is the choice of an appropriate SpatialStrategy. The example uses RecursivePrefixTreeStrategy which is best for points-only data; otherwise I recommend CompositeSpatialStrategy. I'm actively working on a SpatialContext implementation for "Geo3d" which will be another option. Your code wouldn't change other than choosing a different SpatialContext impl. By the way, the one-liner in your email I see you found in SpatialExample.java: doc.add(new StoredField(strategy.getFieldName, pt.getX + " " + pt.getY)) -- is purely for the "stored" version (for document retrieval in search results); not for indexing/search. See the comments preceding it ;-) Good luck. And sorry for leaving you hanging for a few days; I overlooked your email. ~ David On Wed, Jan 6, 2016 at 10:59 PM Robert Nix <r...@spatially.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Is there an example in the lucene-solr source to show how to index polygons > and how to search with and for indexed polys?
