Point datatype and spatial index

[ExtReMLapin]

As far as I understand by going inside com.arcadedb.schema.Type; it seems that spatial functions doesn't have their own datatype.

If we want spatial indexes for faster search (BBOX or fast spherical earch-like search, or accurate ellipsoidal search) we will need an index.

• Point datatype
• Spatial index for fast search

CREATE DOCUMENT TYPE Person IF NOT EXISTS;
CREATE DOCUMENT TYPE Device IF NOT EXISTS;
CREATE DOCUMENT TYPE Ping IF NOT EXISTS;

CREATE PROPERTY Person.name IF NOT EXISTS STRING;
CREATE PROPERTY Device.imei IF NOT EXISTS STRING;
CREATE PROPERTY Ping.location IF NOT EXISTS POINT;
CREATE PROPERTY Ping.time IF NOT EXISTS DATETIME;

CREATE INDEX ON Person(name) UNIQUE;
CREATE INDEX ON Device(imei) UNIQUE;

CREATE INDEX ON Ping(location) SPATIAL;

-- Index pour le filtrage temporel
CREATE INDEX ON Ping(time) NOTUNIQUE;

cf CREATE PROPERTY Ping.location IF NOT EXISTS POINT; and CREATE INDEX ON Ping(location) SPATIAL; and

[robfrank]

does the new GeoSpatial indexing covers this usecase? https://docs.arcadedb.com/#geospatial

What's the status on this? @robfrank are you waiting for @ExtReMLapin?
