+The `shape` datatype facilitates the indexing of and searching
|
|
|
+with arbitrary `x, y` cartesian shapes such as rectangles and polygons. It can be
|
|
|
+used to index and query geometries whose coordinates fall in a 2-dimensional planar
|
|
|
+coordinate system.

+|Option |Description| Default
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+|`orientation` |Optionally define how to interpret vertex order for
|
|
|
+polygons / multipolygons. This parameter defines one of two coordinate
|
|
|
+system rules (Right-hand or Left-hand) each of which can be specified in three
|
|
|
+different ways. 1. Right-hand rule: `right`, `ccw`, `counterclockwise`,
|
|
|
+2. Left-hand rule: `left`, `cw`, `clockwise`. The default orientation
|
|
|
+(`counterclockwise`) complies with the OGC standard which defines
|
|
|
+outer ring vertices in counterclockwise order with inner ring(s) vertices (holes)
|
|
|
+in clockwise order. Setting this parameter in the geo_shape mapping explicitly
|
|
|
+sets vertex order for the coordinate list of a geo_shape field but can be
|
|
|
+overridden in each individual GeoJSON or WKT document.
|
|
|
+| `ccw`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+|`ignore_malformed` |If true, malformed GeoJSON or WKT shapes are ignored. If
|
|
|
+false (default), malformed GeoJSON and WKT shapes throw an exception and reject the
|
|
|
+entire document.
|
|
|
+| `false`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+|`ignore_z_value` |If `true` (default) three dimension points will be accepted (stored in source)
|
|
|
+but only latitude and longitude values will be indexed; the third dimension is ignored. If `false`,
|
|
|
+geo-points containing any more than latitude and longitude (two dimensions) values throw an exception
|
|
|
+and reject the whole document.
|
|
|
+| `true`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+|`coerce` |If `true` unclosed linear rings in polygons will be automatically closed.

+[[shape-indexing-approach]]
|
|
|
+[float]
|
|
|
+==== Indexing approach
|
|
|
+Like `geo_shape`, the `shape` field type is indexed by decomposing geometries into
|
|
|
+a triangular mesh and indexing each triangle as a 7 dimension point in a BKD tree.
|
|
|
+The coordinates provided to the indexer are single precision floating point values so
|
|
|
+the field guarantess the same accuracy provided by the java virtual machine (typically
|
|
|
+`1E-38`). For polygons/multi-polygons the performance of the tessellator primarily
|
|
|
+depends on the number of vertices that define the geometry.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+*IMPORTANT NOTES*
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The following features are not yet supported:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* `shape` query with `MultiPoint` geometry types - Elasticsearch currently prevents searching
|
|
|
+ `shape` fields with a MultiPoint geometry type to avoid a brute force linear search
|
|
|
+ over each individual point. For now, if this is absolutely needed, this can be achieved
|
|
|
+ using a `bool` query with each individual point. (Note: this could be very costly)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* `CONTAINS` relation query - `shape` queries with `relation` defined as `contains` are not
|
|
|
+ yet supported.

|
+=============================================
|
|
|
+For all types, both the inner `type` and `coordinates` fields are required.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+In GeoJSON and WKT, and therefore Elasticsearch, the correct *coordinate order is (X, Y)*
|
|
|
+within coordinate arrays. This differs from many Geospatial APIs (e.g., `geo_shape`) that
|
|
|
+typically use the colloquial latitude, longitude (Y, X) ordering.

|

+Elasticsearch supports an `envelope` type, which consists of coordinates
|
|
|
+for upper left and lower right points of the shape to represent a
|
|
|
+bounding rectangle in the format `[[minX, maxY], [maxX, minY]]`:

+==== Sorting and Retrieving index Shapes
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Due to the complex input structure and index representation of shapes,
|
|
|
+it is not currently possible to sort shapes or retrieve their fields
|
|
|
+directly. The `shape` value is only retrievable through the `_source`
|
|
|
+field.
