date filter filtering out non-dated items?

2008-05-29 Thread Phillip Rhodes

I am doing this, but for 16000+ records. I indexed each document with the lat/long values as keywords. I added a 1000 to each value to get it into the positive range. I do a range query for the lat long, calculating the min/max for the long/lat from the origination point. Don't forget to add

I understand that "Documents are the primary retrievable units from a Lucene query" But I don't know if I want to have 12 documents in the lucene index that represent the same business object, or if I should place 12 different business documents within the lucene index. Here is the backgroun
