I have a document that contains a GeoJSON Polygon geometry, like this:
{
"type": "Polygon",
"coordinates": [
[
[-90,40],
...
]
]
}
Is is possible to create a mapping that will index each coordinate
separately as a geo\_point? I don't need the full geo\_shape indexing
capabilities in this case -- if any of the points match a geo\_bounding\_box
query, that would be fine. It seems from other forum posts that multiple
points can be indexed, but I'm not sure how to convey to ES that the
geo\_points are in a nested array structure that like defined by the GeoJSON
spec.

Hi Aaron,
Did you ever find a solution for your problem? I'm facing the same issue. Please share if you have news.
