perhaps -- see the discussion on: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3795 This will involve a few steps before it is actually integrated with the lucene project -- and then a few more to be usable from solr > > I attempted to build the spatial4j demo but no luck.

If you use the 'updateLucene' profile, it will pull them from: https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/ use: mvn clean install -P updateLucene > Other than spatial4j, is there a way to do point in polgyon searches > with solr 3.5.0 right now?
