About this parameter
Search for entries around a central geolocation, enabling a geo search within a circular area.
By defining this central point, there are three consequences:
- a radius / circle is computed automatically, based on the density of the records near the point defined by this setting
- only records that fall within the bounds of the circle are returned
- records are ranked according to the distance from the center of the circle
Usage notes:
-
With this setting, you are defining a central point of a circle, whose geo-coordinates are expressed as two floats separated by a comma.
-
Note: This setting differs from aroundLatLngViaIP, which uses the end-user’s IP to determine the geo-coordinates.
-
This parameter will be ignored if used along with insideBoundingBox or insidePolygon
-
To control the maximum size of the radius, you would use aroundRadius.
-
To control the minimum size, you would use minimumAroundRadius.
-
The size of this radius depends on the density of the area around the central point. If there are a large number of hits close to the central point, the radius can be small. The less hits near the center, the larger the radius will be.
-
Note: If the results returned are less than the number of hits per page (
hitsPerPage), then the number returned will be less than the hitsPerPage. For example, if you recieve 15 results, you could still see a larger number of hits per page, such ashitsPerPage=20.
