You can use geo-polygon query to query data that falls within a polygon geographic area. You can specify the polygon geographic area as a query condition. Tablestore returns the rows where the value of a field falls within the polygon geographic area.

Parameters

Parameter Description
fieldName The name of the column. Set the query type to Geopoint.
points The coordinate pairs of the points that define a polygon area.

This parameter value must be in the format of latitude,longitude. Valid values of the latitude: [-90,+90]. Valid values of the longitude: [-180,+180]. Example: 35.8,-45.91.

query The query statement for the search index. The query type. To use geo-polygon query, set this parameter to GeoPolygonQuery.
getTotalCount Specifies whether to return the total number of rows that match the query conditions. By default, this parameter is set to false, which indicates that the total number of rows that match the query conditions is not returned.

Query performance is affected when this parameter is set to true.

tableName The name of the table.
indexName The name of the search index.
columnsToGet Specifies whether to return all columns of each matched row. You can configure returnAll and columns for this parameter.

By default, returnAll is set to false, which indicates that not all columns are returned. If returnAll is set to false, you can use columns to specify the columns to return. If you do not specify the columns to return, only the primary key columns are returned.

If returnAll is set to true, all columns are returned.

Examples

The following code provides an example on how to query the table for rows where the value of Col_GeoPoint falls within a specified geographic polygon area:

public static void geoPolygonQuery(SyncClient client) {
    SearchQuery searchQuery = new SearchQuery();
    GeoPolygonQuery geoPolygonQuery = new GeoPolygonQuery();  // Set the query type to GeoPolygonQuery.
    geoPolygonQuery.setFieldName("Col_GeoPoint");
    geoPolygonQuery.setPoints(Arrays.asList("0,0","5,5","5,0")); // Specify coordinate pairs for vertices of a polygon geographic area.
    searchQuery.setQuery(geoPolygonQuery);
    //searchQuery.setGetTotalCount(true); // Specify that the total number of matched rows is returned.

    SearchRequest searchRequest = new SearchRequest("sampleTable", "sampleSearchIndex", searchQuery);
    // You can set the columnsToGet parameter to specify the columns to return or specify that all columns are returned. If you do not set this parameter, only the primary key columns are returned.
    //SearchRequest.ColumnsToGet columnsToGet = new SearchRequest.ColumnsToGet();
    //columnsToGet.setReturnAll(true); // Set ReturnAll to true to return all columns.
    //columnsToGet.setColumns(Arrays.asList("ColName1","ColName2")); // Set Columns to return specified columns.
    //searchRequest.setColumnsToGet(columnsToGet);

    SearchResponse resp = client.search(searchRequest);
    //System.out.println("TotalCount: " + resp.getTotalCount()); // Display the total number of matched rows instead of the number of returned rows.
    System.out.println("Row: " + resp.getRows());
}
