             Summary: Geo3d cleanup: Regularize path and polygon construction, 
plus consider adding ellipsoid surface distance method
                 Key: LUCENE-6544
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6544
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/spatial
            Reporter: Karl Wright


Geo3d's way of constructing polygons and paths differs in that in one case you 
construct points and the other you feed lat/lon values directly to the builder. 
 Probably both should be supported for both kinds of entity.

Also it may be useful to have an accurate point-point ellipsoidal distance 
function.  This is expensive and would be an addition to the arc distance we 
currently compute.  It would probably be called "surface distance".
