Geospatial - operators

Geospatial operators perform operations on geographic data and spatial relationships.

	Description
$box	The $box operator defines a rectangular area for geospatial queries using coordinate pairs.
$center	The $center operator specifies a circle using legacy coordinate pairs for $geoWithin queries.
$centerSphere	The $centerSphere operator specifies a circle using spherical geometry for $geoWithin queries.
$geoIntersects	The $geoIntersects operator selects documents whose location field intersects with a specified GeoJSON object.
$geometry	The $geometry operator specifies a GeoJSON geometry for geospatial queries.
$geoWithin	The $geoWithin operator selects documents whose location field is completely within a specified geometry.
$maxDistance	The $maxDistance operator specifies the maximum distance that can exist between two points in a geospatial query.
$minDistance	The $minDistance operator specifies the minimum distance that must exist between two points in a geospatial query.
$near	The $near operator returns documents with location fields that are near a specified point, sorted by distance.
$nearSphere	The $nearSphere operator returns documents whose location fields are near a specified point on a sphere, sorted by distance on a spherical surface.
$polygon	The $polygon operator defines a polygon for geospatial queries, allowing you to find locations within an irregular shape.
