Spatial Search - Best choice (if any)?
Hi, Using Solr 1.4, I'm now working on adding spatial search options, such as distance-based sorting, Bounding-box filter, etc. To the best of my knowledge, there are three possible points we can start from: 1. The http://blog.jteam.nl/2009/08/03/geo-location-search-with-solr-and-lucene/ 2. The gissearch.com 3. The http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/j-spatial/index.html#resources I saw that these three options have been used but didn't see any comparison between them. Is there any one out there who can recommend one option over another? Thanks, -S

I hope that those who know will answer this. I am really interested in it also. TIA. Dennis Gearon Signature Warning EARTH has a Right To Life, otherwise we all die.

Re: Spatial Search - Best choice (if any)?
I'm also just starting a project requiring spatial indexing so any info would be greatly appreciated. I had a quick look at the wiki last night and it appears solr has it built in in the latest version? Not sure if the patches need applying directly though My requirements are quite simple, I just need an ability to return results based on radial distance from one point http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch Thanks Dave Sent from my iPhone On 16 Jul 2010, at 17:50, Dennis Gearon gear...@sbcglobal.net wrote: I hope that those who know will answer this.
