Documented steps

  1. Index points first with GEOADD on the target key.
  2. Choose the search center: FROMMEMBER member (an existing member) or FROMLONLAT longitude latitude (raw coordinates).
  3. Choose the shape: BYRADIUS radius M|KM|FT|MI (circle) or BYBOX width height M|KM|FT|MI (axis-aligned box).
  4. Add optional modifiers: ASC/DESC sort by distance; WITHCOORD returns coordinates; WITHDIST returns distance in the shape unit; WITHHASH returns the 52-bit geohash.
  5. Bound results with COUNT n, and add ANY for a faster early exit (results may then be unsorted).
  6. Example: GEOSEARCH Sicily FROMLONLAT 15 37 BYRADIUS 200 km ASC WITHDIST.
