Hi there all, I'm using the RPT field type to perform geospatial polygonal searches (e.g. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Spatial+Search)/
How do you recommend with self-crossing polygons (8 figure or bow-tie, for example)? Decompose it in a multi polygon? Setting to "none" validation rule: in what cases the unexpected behavior arises? or, configure different validation rules at the schema level? According to https://lucene.apache.org/core/6_2_0/core/org/apache/ lucene/geo/Polygon.html 1. The polygon must not be self-crossing, otherwise may result in unexpected behavior. The expected behavior of the search is that of searching for points in each of the lobes of the 8 figure, for the example given. Best regards -- Rodolfo Federico Gamarra
