Geospatial Search Capabilities
Implement geo-point and geo-shape mappings to perform location-based searches, proximity queries, and geospatial aggregations.
Location-Aware Search
Welcome to Geospatial Search! Many modern applications rely on location data, from finding nearby restaurants to tracking delivery vehicles.
Elasticsearch provides powerful features to index, search, and analyze geographic information efficiently.
The `geo_point` Field
The most common way to store a single geographical location in Elasticsearch is using the geo_point data type.
It represents a specific point on Earth using its latitude and longitude coordinates.
- Latitude: North-South position (e.g., 48.8584)
- Longitude: East-West position (e.g., 2.2945)
