Hi,
our strategy is to have a separate center coordinate field that we use
for sorting. This has the additional benefit that it's possible to have
the indexed center point differ from the polygon's centroid, which can
be useful e.g. with cities, where the city center can be quite a bit
offset
Hello,
Sorry for the belated response.
Solr only supports sorting from point or rectangles in the index. For
rectangles use BBoxField. For points, ideally use the new
LatLonPointSpatialField; failing that use LatLonType. You can use RPT for
point data but I don't recommend sorting with it; use
