Hi, everyone, I'm facing with an issue about geo locations and I want to know if it is possible to achieve it in ElasticSearch 0.9+. I want to define in my documents, a field where I can set latitude and longitude and a radius, defining a circle shape, for example, and with this data get the shape area. Then, I want to do a geo\_shape filtered search operation where the area set in the document will be taken in account and not only the actual point. Basically, it is like a cell search matching another cells areas. Here it's a simple graph representing this situations, hope it is clear: [https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-roaGxObmEuY/VPn2OOvcdzI/AAAAAAAAAW0/TIop0dIcfEM/s1600/radius.png](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-roaGxObmEuY/VPn2OOvcdzI/AAAAAAAAAW0/TIop0dIcfEM/s1600/radius.png) Thanks in advance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
