             Summary: Improve accuracy of distance query for Geo3DPoint
                 Key: LUCENE-8577
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8577
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/spatial3d
            Reporter: Ignacio Vera


The distance query for Geo3DPoint currently uses the GeoStandardCircle which is 
only accurate when the PlanetModel is a sphere. 

In LUCENE-7970. a new implementation called GeoExactCircle was added that 
models an exact circle, even when the planet model is not a sphere. Because 
Geo3DPoint is using WGS84 planet model,  we should be using this implementation 
instead. The downside is that this implementation will be slightly slower.
