Geo queries

edit

Elasticsearch supports two types of geo data: geo_point fields which support lat/lon pairs, and geo_shape fields, which support points, lines, circles, polygons, multi-polygons, etc.

The queries in this group are:

geo_bounding_box query
Finds documents with geopoints that fall into the specified rectangle.
geo_distance query
Finds documents with geopoints within the specified distance of a central point.
geo_polygon query
Find documents with geopoints within the specified polygon.
geo_shape query

Finds documents with:

  • Geoshapes which either intersect, are contained by, or do not intersect with the specified geoshape
  • Geopoints which intersect the specified geoshape
