Almost. Main thing missing right now is filtering. There are still ways to do spatial filtering, but it isn't complete yet. In the meantime, range queries and or frange might help. > because none of the patches I tried could be applied to the source tree. > If this is the case, can someone one tell me how to configure it? http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch has most of the docs, but they aren't complete yet. Here's what I would do: Check out latest Solr Build the example: ant clean example Start the example: cd example; java -jar start.jar Rebuild the index: cd exampledocs; java -jar post.jar *.xml Run a query: http://localhost:8983/solr/select/?q=_val_:"recip(dist(2, store, vector(34.0232,-81.0664)),1,1,0)"&fl=*,score // Note, I just updated this, it used to be point instead of vector and that was wrong. Next, have a look at the docs in exampledocs and specifically the store field, which contains the location. Then go check out the schema for that field.
