Nicholas Knize commented on LUCENE-7179:
----------------------------------------

Unless there's ideas for lossless compression of 64 bit signed double precision 
to 32 bit unsigned space I'm not sure this discussion will be any more 
productive. So I'll get back to investigating other approaches. In the meantime 
I vote the API refactor all doubles to floats. At least then its explicit to 
the user that lat/lon values are stored in 32 bits.




> GeoPoint and LatLonPoint test data should quantize once

> {{LatLonPoint}} and {{GeoPointField}} tests pre quantizes test data to ensure 
> consistency with indexed (encoded) data. The pre quantized data then becomes 
> indexed, undergoing another quantization. To guarantee numerical stability 
> this should be changed such that the test data is quantized after indexing.
