Jason Rutherglen commented on SOLR-1578:
----------------------------------------
GBase http://code.google.com/apis/base/docs/2.0/query-lang-spec.html (Locations
section at the bottom of the page) has a query syntax for spatial queries (i.e.
@+40.75-074.00 + 5mi)
> Develop a Spatial Query Parser
> ------------------------------

> Key: SOLR-1578

> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Grant Ingersoll
> Fix For: 1.5

>
> Given all the work around spatial, it would be beneficial if Solr had a query
> parser for dealing with spatial queries. For starters, something that used
> geonames data or maybe even Google Maps API would be really useful. Longer
> term, a spatial grammar that can robustly handle all the vagaries of
> addresses, etc. would be really cool.
