            <title>[DOCS-15351] [Server] Make geospatial coordinate ordering notice more prominent</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-15351</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;There has been recent confusion about the ordering of coordinates in geospatial data in MongoDB, including this &lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.icod.de/2022/05/19/serious-bug-in-mongodb-geospatial-distance-calculation/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;blog post&lt;/a&gt; (see related &lt;a href=&quot;https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/GODRIVER-2429&quot; title=&quot;GeoJSON uses lat/long in the wrong order&quot; class=&quot;issue-link&quot; data-issue-key=&quot;GODRIVER-2429&quot;&gt;&lt;del&gt;GODRIVER-2429&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/a&gt;) that started as a bug report but ended up being an issue related to expected coordinate order (i.e. order of latitude, longitude in points). Before it was resolved, it was &lt;a href=&quot;https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31433113&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;shared&lt;/a&gt; on Hacker News and was popular enough to make the front page.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/geospatial-queries/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Geospatial Queries&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/geojson/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;GeoJSON&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/operator/query/near/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;$near&lt;/a&gt; manual pages describe that MongoDB uses coordinate order &lt;tt&gt;(longitude, latitude)&lt;/tt&gt;, users may assume a coordinate order based on experience with other systems and may gloss over that information. A more prominent notice of the coordinate order that MongoDB expects could reduce confusion. Please add a more prominent notice (e.g. a &quot;Note&quot; or &quot;Warning&quot; block) that the MongoDB coordinate order is &lt;tt&gt;(longitude, latitude)&lt;/tt&gt; to all manual pages that describe geospatial data and operations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Relevant pages (that I could find):&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/geospatial-queries/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/geospatial-queries/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/geojson/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/geojson/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/operator/query/near/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/operator/query/near/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
