Hi, I think your requirement of exporting back to CSV is fine but it's quite normal for there to be some transformation steps on input and/or output... and that such steps you mostly do yourself (not Solr). That said, one straight-forward solution is to have your spatial field be redundant with the lat & lon separately. Your spatial field could be stored=false, and the separate fields would be stored but otherwise not be indexed or have other characteristics that add weight. The result is efficient; no redundancies.
