--------------------------------------
Summary: GeoPointField should use full 64 bit encoding
Key: LUCENE-6710
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6710
Project: Lucene - Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Nicholas Knize
Current GeoPointField uses 31 bits for each lat and long, respectively. This
causes a precision error for the maximum bounds for 2D mapping applications
(e.g., instead of maximum of 180, 90 the max value handled is 179.999999,
89.999999).
This issue improves precision for the full 2D map boundaries by using the full
32 bit range for lat/lon values, resulting in a morton hash using the full 64
bit range.
