Hi

I am very newbie on ElasticSearch and I have a basic problem, I have a the  
follow instructions

"lat": 52.630885,  
"lon": 1.297355  
}  
}  
}  
}'

and all results that hits returns with score value 1, I need the results  
returns with differents score values. I read elastic documentation and  
found that I can use custom\_filters\_score with boost fields  
[http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/custom-filters-score-query.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/custom-filters-score-query.html)  
but I can't implement that in my query. I appreciate if anyone can help  
with that, and my other question is if there are other ways for doing the  
query calculates score values.

Thanks

The scores should not be 1 since you are not using a constant score query.  
Do you omit term frequencies in your index? Post (gist) and sample  
explanation output (preferably without the facets).
