Is the given point inside a Geo Shape?

[damian-pf (Damian)]

Hey guys could someone help me a bit with this query?

I need a query that I can pass a latitude/longitude point to and it will return any of the stored GeoShapes that the point is inside.

Bonus points: I also need to check if the point is within (say) 100m of a stored point.

For context: I have documents that either have an associated GeoShape or a latitude/longitude.

Hey,

geo shapes support a specific geo shape called a point, which you can use to query for documents that have this point within their shape. See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.2/geo-shape.html

The example in the documentation contains such a query (it's just inverted) https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.2/query-dsl-geo-shape-query.html

If you need to search by distance you might need to add a special geo point and use the geo distance query though.
