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 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
