> Deprecate GeoPointField & queries

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7664
> Project: Lucene - Core

> Reporter: Michael McCandless

> Fix For: master (7.0), 6.5.0

> Attachments: LUCENE-7664.patch

>
> The new dimensional points implementations for geo distance, polygon, shape
> filtering are substantially faster and creates a smaller index than the
> postings based {{GeoPointField}}. They also offer nearest neighbor search,
> which {{GeoPointField}} doesn't.
> I think we should deprecate {{GeoPointField}} and focus on the points
> implementations.
> We have still other legacy postings based geo implementations but I think we
> should keep them for now since they have functionality that points doesn't
> yet have: the ability to index a shape and search for shapes overlapping the
> indexed shapes.
