.. -*- rst -*- .. Groonga Project .. highlightlang:: none Geolocation Search ================== Groonga supports geolocation search. It uses index for search. It means that you can search by geolocation fast like fulltext search. Supported features ------------------ Groonga supports only point as data type. Line, surface and so on aren't supported yet. Here is a feature list: #. Groonga can store a point to a column. #. Groonga can search records that have a point in the specified rectangle. #. Groonga can search records that have a point in the specified circle. #. Groonga can calculate distance between two points. #. Groonga can sort records by distance from the specified point in ascending order. Here are use cases for Groonga's geolocation search: * You list McDonald's around a station. * You list KFS around the current location sort by distance from the current location in ascending order with distance. Here are not use cases: * You search McDonald's in a city. (Groonga doesn't support geolocation search by a shape except a rectangle and a circle.) * You store a region instead of a point as a lake record. (A column can't has geolocation data except a point.) The following figures show about Groonga's geolocation search features. Here is a figure that only has records. A black point describes a record. The following figures shows how records are treated. .. image:: /images/geo-points.png :alt: only records Coming soon...
