The queries in this group are:

geo_bounding_box query

Finds documents with geo-points that fall into the specified rectangle.

geo_distance query

Finds documents with geo-points within the specified distance of a central point.

geo_polygon query

Find documents with geo-points within the specified polygon.

geo_shape query

Finds documents with:

geo-shapes which either intersect, are contained by, or do not intersect with the specified geo-shape
geo-points which intersect the specified geo-shape
