Does YugaByte support geospatial queries?

Given REDIS and Postgres API support I thought it might be possible, but I am not seeing any reference to this in the documentation.

Thanks for your interest in YugaByte DB.

  • The YEDIS (Redis-compatible) API does not yet support geo-spatial commands such as GEOADD. This is not currently in our roadmap. Nevertheless, could you please open a GitHub issue against us for support this?

  • The Postgres API is in beta, and do not have Postgis working yet. This is on the roadmap, but please open a separate issue for this as well, so we can get back to you once we know the timelines for this.

One option to implement Geo-spatial queries currently is using Spark or Presto with the YCQL (Cassandra-compatible) API. Does that work for you?

For example, here are some Presto docs outlining geo-spatial functions.
