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 geoshapes or geopoints which intersect the specified rectangle.
geo_distance query
Finds documents with geoshapes or geopoints within the specified distance of a central point.
geo_grid query

Finds documents with:

  • Geoshapes or geopoints which intersect the specified geohash
  • Geoshapes or geopoints which intersect the specified map tile
  • Geopoints which intersect the specified H3 bin
geo_polygon query
Find documents with geoshapes or geopoints which intersect the specified polygon.
geo_shape query
Finds documents with geoshapes or geopoints which are related to the specified geoshape. Possible spatial relationships to specify are: intersects, contained, within and disjoint.
