Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Solr Wiki" for change notification.
The "SpatialSearch" page has been changed by AlexandreRafalovitch: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch?action=diff&rev1=87&rev2=88 Comment: Now that Solr 4 is out, it makes sense to indicate new Geo type more prominently on the page '''NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, all units of distance are kilometers and points are in degrees of latitude,longitude.''' + = New Solr 4 Spatial Field Types = + Lucene 4 has a new spatial module that replaces the older one described below. The Solr adapters for it are documented here: SolrAdaptersForLuceneSpatial4. The rest of this document is about the still-supported older approach. + = QuickStart = If you haven't already, download Solr, start the example server and index the example data as shown in the [[http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html|solr tutorial]]. With the Solr server running, you should be able to click on the example links and see real responses. @@ -25, +28 @@ <field name="store">40.7143,-74.006</field> <!-- NYC store --> <field name="store">37.7752,-122.4232</field> <!-- San Francisco store --> }}} + == Schema Configuration == @@ -204, +208 @@ === Filtering Caveats === For the {{{bbox}}} filter, when the bounding box includes a pole, the !LatLonType will switch from producing a bounding box to a "bounding bowl" (i.e. a [[http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SphericalCap.html|spherical cap]]) whereby it will include all values that are North or South of the latitude of the would be bounding box (the lower left and the upper right) that is closer to the equator. In other words, we still calculate what the coordinates of the upper right corner and the lower left corner of the box would be just as in all other filtering cases, but we then take the corner that is closest to the equator (since it goes over the pole it may not be the lower left, despite the name) and do a latitude only filter. Obviously, this means there will be more matches than a pure bounding box match, but the query is much easier to construct and will likely be faster, too. - = New Solr 4 Spatial Field Types = - Lucene 4 has a new spatial module that replaces the older one before it.
