Hi All

I'm unable to query/filter any documents with geo\_point type stored as  
geohash.

For more information please look into my example:

//create a index  
curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/geo-test](http://localhost:9200/geo-test)  
//added mappings  
curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/_mapping) -d '  
{  
"index": {  
"properties": {  
"g": {  
"type": "geo\_point",  
"geohash" : true  
}  
}  
}  
}'

//insert a docs  
curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/1](http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/1) -d '{"g":"drm3btev3e86",  
"name" : "one" }'  
curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/2](http://localhost:9200/geo-test/index/2) -d '{"g":"u1044k2bd6u",  
"name" : "two" }'

//search  
curl -XGET [http://localhost:9200/geo-test/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/geo-test/_search?pretty=true) -d '{  
"query": {  
"match\_all": {}  
},  
"filter": {  
"geo\_distance": {  
"distance": "12km",  
"g": "drm3btev3e86"  
}  
}  
}'

Result:  
{  
"took" : 1,  
"timed\_out" : false,  
"\_shards" : {  
"total" : 5,  
"successful" : 5,  
"failed" : 0  
},  
"hits" : {  
"total" : 0,  
"max\_score" : null,  
"hits" : []  
}  
}

Hi Artur,

which version of ES are you using. I fixed a bug on the Geohases two weeks  
ago. Maybe you can have a look at

Hi Florian

I have tested that against 0.90.0 and 0.90.1 and in both cases the result  
was the same.
