Class LatLonPoint

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.document.Field

org.apache.lucene.document.LatLonPoint

All Implemented Interfaces:

IndexableField

public class LatLonPoint
extends Field

An indexed location field.

Finding all documents within a range at search time is efficient. Multiple values for the same field in one document is allowed.

This field defines static factory methods for common operations:

• newBoxQuery() for matching points within a bounding box.
• newDistanceQuery() for matching points within a specified distance.
• newPolygonQuery() for matching points within an arbitrary polygon.

If you also need per-document operations such as sort by distance, add a separate LatLonDocValuesField instance. If you also need to store the value, you should add a separate StoredField instance.

WARNING: Values are indexed with some loss of precision from the original double values (4.190951585769653E-8 for the latitude component and 8.381903171539307E-8 for longitude).

Constructor Detail

LatLonPoint

public LatLonPoint(String name,
                   double latitude,
                   double longitude)

Creates a new LatLonPoint with the specified latitude and longitude

Parameters:

name - field name

latitude - latitude value: must be within standard +/-90 coordinate bounds.

longitude - longitude value: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the field name is null or latitude or longitude are out of bounds

Method Detail

setLocationValue

public void setLocationValue(double latitude,
                             double longitude)

Change the values of this field

Parameters:

latitude - latitude value: must be within standard +/-90 coordinate bounds.

longitude - longitude value: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if latitude or longitude are out of bounds

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: Field

Prints a Field for human consumption.

newBoxQuery

public static Query newBoxQuery(String field,
                                double minLatitude,
                                double maxLatitude,
                                double minLongitude,
                                double maxLongitude)

Create a query for matching a bounding box.

The box may cross over the dateline.

Parameters:

field - field name. must not be null.

minLatitude - latitude lower bound: must be within standard +/-90 coordinate bounds.

maxLatitude - latitude upper bound: must be within standard +/-90 coordinate bounds.

minLongitude - longitude lower bound: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.

maxLongitude - longitude upper bound: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.

Returns:

query matching points within this box

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if field is null, or the box has invalid coordinates.

newDistanceQuery

public static Query newDistanceQuery(String field,
                                     double latitude,
                                     double longitude,
                                     double radiusMeters)

Create a query for matching points within the specified distance of the supplied location.

Parameters:

field - field name. must not be null.

latitude - latitude at the center: must be within standard +/-90 coordinate bounds.

longitude - longitude at the center: must be within standard +/-180 coordinate bounds.

radiusMeters - maximum distance from the center in meters: must be non-negative and finite.

Returns:

query matching points within this distance

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if field is null, location has invalid coordinates, or radius is invalid.

newPolygonQuery

public static Query newPolygonQuery(String field,
                                    Polygon... polygons)

Create a query for matching one or more polygons.

Parameters:

field - field name. must not be null.

polygons - array of polygons. must not be null or empty

Returns:

query matching points within this polygon

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if field is null, polygons is null or empty
