Nicholas Knize commented on LUCENE-6699:
----------------------------------------
Wait... PlanetModel just gives WGS84 parameters along with the same Vincenty
distance formula provided by GeoDistanceUtils in sandbox (which can be quite an
expensive convergence, btw). So why not just use the static calls in sandbox
and save passing around a PlanetModel object? You can also use the attached
patch I provided which provides static calls to convert to/from unit spheroid
and lat/lon.

> I'm opening this for discussion, because I'm not yet sure how to do
> this integration, because of my ignorance about spatial in general and
> spatial3d in particular :)
> Our BKD tree impl is very fast at doing lat/lon shape intersection
> (bbox, polygon, soon distance: LUCENE-6698) against previously indexed
> points.
> I think to integrate with spatial3d, we would first need to record
> lat/lon/z into doc values. Somewhere I saw discussion about how we
> could stuff all 3 into a single long value with acceptable precision
> loss? Or, we could use BinaryDocValues? We need all 3 dims available
> to do the fast per-hit query time filtering.
> But, second: what do we index into the BKD tree? Can we "just" index
> earth surface lat/lon, and then at query time is spatial3d able to
> give me an enclosing "surface lat/lon" bbox for a 3d shape? Or
> ... must we index all 3 dimensions into the BKD tree (seems like this
> could be somewhat wasteful)?
