Geo-bounds aggregationedit

A metric aggregation that computes the geographic bounding box containing all values for a Geopoint or Geoshape field.

Example:

response = client.indices.create(
  index: 'museums',
  body: {
    mappings: {
      properties: {
        location: {
          type: 'geo_point'
        }
      }
    }
  }
)
puts response

response = client.bulk(
  index: 'museums',
  refresh: true,
  body: [
    {
      index: {
        _id: 1
      }
    },
    {
      location: 'POINT (4.912350 52.374081)',
      name: 'NEMO Science Museum'
    },
    {
      index: {
        _id: 2
      }
    },
    {
      location: 'POINT (4.901618 52.369219)',
      name: 'Museum Het Rembrandthuis'
    },
    {

    },
    {
      location: 'POINT (4.914722 52.371667)',
      name: 'Nederlands Scheepvaartmuseum'
    },
    {
      index: {
        _id: 4
      }
    },
    {
      location: 'POINT (4.405200 51.222900)',

    },

    }
  }
}

The geo_bounds aggregation specifies the field to use to obtain the bounds, which must be a Geopoint or a Geoshape type.

wrap_longitude is an optional parameter which specifies whether the bounding box should be allowed to overlap the international date line. The default value is true.

The above aggregation demonstrates how one would compute the bounding box of the location field for all documents with a name matching "musée".

The response for the above aggregation:

{

  "aggregations": {
    "viewport": {
      "bounds": {
        "top_left": {
          "lat": 48.86111099738628,
          "lon": 2.3269999679178

          "lon": 2.3363889567553997
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Geo Bounds Aggregation on geo_shape fieldsedit

The Geo Bounds Aggregation is also supported on geo_shape fields.

If wrap_longitude is set to true (the default), the bounding box can overlap the international date line and return a bounds where the top_left longitude is larger than the top_right longitude.

For example, the upper right longitude will typically be greater than the lower left longitude of a geographic bounding box. However, when the area crosses the 180° meridian, the value of the lower left longitude will be greater than the value of the upper right longitude. See Geographic bounding box on the Open Geospatial Consortium website for more information.
