許多應用程式都包含以實體位置建立索引的文件。舉例來說，您的應用程式可能會允許使用者瀏覽目前位置附近的商店。
解決方案：地理編碼
Geohash 是一種系統，可將 (latitude, longitude) 組合編碼為單一 Base32 字串。在 Geohash 系統中，世界會劃分為矩形格線。Geohash 字串的每個字元都會指定前置字串雜湊的 32 個子區段之一。舉例來說，Geohash abcd 是 32 個四字元雜湊值之一，完全包含在較大的 Geohash abc 中。
兩個雜湊值之間共用的前置字串越長，兩者就越接近。例如 abcdef 比 abcdff 更接近 abcdeg。但反之則不成立！兩個區域可能彼此相距不遠，但 Geohash 卻截然不同：
我們可以使用 Geohash，以合理效率儲存及查詢 Cloud Firestore 中的位置資料，且只需要單一索引欄位。
安裝輔助程式庫
建立和剖析地理編碼涉及一些複雜的數學運算，因此我們建立了輔助程式庫，以便抽象化 Android、Apple 和網頁上最困難的部分：
Web
// Install from NPM. If you prefer to use a static .js file visit
// https://github.com/firebase/geofire-js/releases and download
// geofire-common.min.js from the latest version
npm install --save geofire-common

// 將以下內容新增至 Podfile
Pod 'GeoFire/Utils'Kotlin

implementation 'com.firebase:geofire-android-common:3.2.0'
Java
// Add this to your app/build.gradle
implementation 'com.firebase:geofire-android-common:3.1.0'
儲存地理編碼
對於每份要依據地點編入索引的文件，您都需要儲存 Geohash 欄位：
Web
import { doc, updateDoc } from 'firebase/firestore'; // Compute the GeoHash for a lat/lng point const lat = 51.5074; const lng = 0.1278; const hash = geofire.geohashForLocation([lat, lng]); // Add the hash and the lat/lng to the document. We will use the hash // for queries and the lat/lng for distance comparisons. const londonRef = doc(db, 'cities', 'LON'); await updateDoc(londonRef, { geohash: hash, lat: lat, lng: lng });
Web
// Compute the GeoHash for a lat/lng point const lat = 51.5074; const lng = 0.1278; const hash = geofire.geohashForLocation([lat, lng]); // Add the hash and the lat/lng to the document. We will use the hash // for queries and the lat/lng for distance comparisons. const londonRef = db.collection('cities').doc('LON'); londonRef.update({ geohash: hash, lat: lat, lng: lng }).then(() => { // ... });
Swift

// Compute the GeoHash for a lat/lng point let latitude = 51.5074 let longitude = 0.12780 let location = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: latitude, longitude: longitude) let hash = GFUtils.geoHash(forLocation: location) // Add the hash and the lat/lng to the document. We will use the hash // for queries and the lat/lng for distance comparisons. let documentData: [String: Any] = [ "geohash": hash, "lat": latitude, "lng": longitude ] let londonRef = db.collection("cities").document("LON") londonRef.updateData(documentData) { error in // ... }
Kotlin
// Compute the GeoHash for a lat/lng point val lat = 51.5074 val lng = 0.1278 val hash = GeoFireUtils.getGeoHashForLocation(GeoLocation(lat, lng)) // Add the hash and the lat/lng to the document. We will use the hash // for queries and the lat/lng for distance comparisons. val updates: MutableMap<String, Any> = mutableMapOf( "geohash" to hash, "lat" to lat, "lng" to lng, ) val londonRef = db.collection("cities").document("LON") londonRef.update(updates) .addOnCompleteListener { // ... }
Java
// Compute the GeoHash for a lat/lng point double lat = 51.5074; double lng = 0.1278; String hash = GeoFireUtils.getGeoHashForLocation(new GeoLocation(lat, lng)); // Add the hash and the lat/lng to the document. We will use the hash // for queries and the lat/lng for distance comparisons. Map<String, Object> updates = new HashMap<>(); updates.put("geohash", hash); updates.put("lat", lat); updates.put("lng", lng); DocumentReference londonRef = db.collection("cities").document("LON"); londonRef.update(updates) .addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<Void>() { @Override public void onComplete(@NonNull Task<Void> task) { // ... } });
查詢地理編碼
我們可以透過 Geohash 欄位上的一組查詢進行結合，然後篩除部分誤判為正確的結果，以便近似地區查詢：
Web
import { collection, query, orderBy, startAt, endAt, getDocs } from 'firebase/firestore'; // Find cities within 50km of London const center = [51.5074, 0.1278]; const radiusInM = 50 * 1000; // Each item in 'bounds' represents a startAt/endAt pair. We have to issue // a separate query for each pair. There can be up to 9 pairs of bounds // depending on overlap, but in most cases there are 4. const bounds = geofire.geohashQueryBounds(center, radiusInM); const promises = []; for (const b of bounds) { const q = query( collection(db, 'cities'), orderBy('geohash'), startAt(b[0]), endAt(b[1])); promises.push(getDocs(q)); } // Collect all the query results together into a single list const snapshots = await Promise.all(promises); const matchingDocs = []; for (const snap of snapshots) { for (const doc of snap.docs) { const lat = doc.get('lat'); const lng = doc.get('lng'); // We have to filter out a few false positives due to GeoHash // accuracy, but most will match const distanceInKm = geofire.distanceBetween([lat, lng], center); const distanceInM = distanceInKm * 1000; if (distanceInM <= radiusInM) { matchingDocs.push(doc); } } }

限制
使用地理編碼查詢位置可提供新的功能，但也有一些限制：
- 偽陽性：使用 Geohash 進行查詢的結果不精確，您必須在用戶端篩除偽陽性結果。這些額外的讀取作業會為應用程式增加成本和延遲。
- 極端案例：這個查詢方法會根據經緯線之間的距離進行估算。點越靠近北極或南極，這項估算值的精確度就會降低，也就是說，在極端緯度上，Geohash 查詢會產生更多偽陽性。
