Mark,
Yes you can. You should index polygons, not polylines. A polyline
semantically refers to the actual line but rather you want to index the
coverage of the nation (the space encircled by the polyline), not the
border literally.
One thing to be aware of is that indexed non-point shapes are p
I'm new to spatial search within solr. If I have a set of records containing
closed polylines describing, say, the boundaries of nations, can I use solr to
build an index of these records against which I can search to see if a point is
contained within any of them?
Thanks,
-Mark
