New extension: Geospatial (Redis)

The next extension for the Redis challenge is now live: Geospatial.

Redis geospatial indexes let you store coordinates and query them efficiently. Built on top of Sorted Sets, they make it possible to perform operations like finding nearby points within a given radius.

By the end of this extension, your Redis implementation will support:

  • Adding locations with GEOADD
  • Querying locations with GEOPOS
  • Calculating distances with GEODIST
  • Searching for locations within a radius GEOSEARCH

Here’s the stage breakdown:

Please give this a try and let us know how it can be improved! @UdeshyaDhungana (author of this extension) and I will be available here to help out with any tester or instruction-related issues.

I just want to say I love that you keep expanding the Redis challenge, it’s been the most fun and educational one so far :slight_smile:
