David Smiley commented on SOLR-10039:
-------------------------------------
Great point; if reverse is true then I can merely call the superclass version
:-)
I want to delay polygon support for another issue; there's actually a lot to
make that work, and the functionality here is plenty good as-is.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-10039
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: spatial
> Reporter: David Smiley

>
> The fastest and most efficient spatial field for point data in Lucene/Solr is
> {{LatLonPoint}} in Lucene's sandbox module. I'll include
> {{LatLonDocValuesField}} with this even though it's a separate class.
> LatLonPoint is based on the Points API, using a BKD index. It's multi-valued
> capable. LatLonDocValuesField is based on sorted numeric DocValues, and thus
> is also multi-valued capable (a big deal as the existing Solr ones either
> aren't or do poorly at it). Note that this feature is limited to a
> latitude/longitude spherical world model. And furthermore the precision is
> at about a centimeter -- less precise than the other spatial fields but
> nonetheless plenty good for most applications. Last but not least, this
> capability natively supports polygons, albeit those that don't wrap the
> dateline or a pole.
> I propose a {{LatLonPointSpatialField}} which uses this. Patch & details
> forthcoming...
> This development was funded by the Harvard Center for Geographic Analysis as
> part of the HHypermap project
