| <title>Geographical filtering & sorting with Lucene</title> |
| </head> |
| <body> |
| <p> |
| This package makes it possible to filter and sort according to |
| geographical constraints. For example, filter to include only |
| restaurants within 2 miles of a specified latitude/longitude, sorting |
| by distance ascending. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| See <a href="http://www.nsshutdown.com/projects/lucene/whitepaper/locallucene_v2.html">here</a> |
| for details on the technical approach. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Unfortunately, this package is still very new, and has little to no |
| documentation. It's best to look at the unit tests included in |
| the source distribution. |
