Added LocationField to Haystack and location data type to Solr backend code based upon Yun Fu's blog: http://fuyun.org/2011/11/add-solr-spatial-search-for-djang-haystack/
Add field to Index like this: >>> location = LocationField(model_lat_attr='lat', model_lng_attr='lng')

Added spatial filtering as discussed in http://groups.google.com/group/django-haystack/browse_thread/thread/d0e23d45c0baa300/cb5d29132735afaf but using haystack 1.2.* (so all changes are in the 1.2.X branch at the moment) and geofiltering from Solr 3.4+
Spatial filtering example
>>> from haystack.query import SearchQuerySet
>>> s = SearchQuerySet()
>>> s.spatial(lat=9.671519, long=46.686754000000001, sfield='location',distance=10)See more here - https://github.com/frutik/django-haystack/blob/1.2.X/README.rst

Haystack provides modular search for Django. It features a unified, familiar API that allows you to plug in different search backends (such as Solr, Whoosh, Xapian, etc.) without having to modify your code.
Haystack is BSD licensed, plays nicely with third-party app without needing to modify the source and supports advanced features like faceting, More Like This, highlighting and spelling suggestions.
You can find more information at http://haystacksearch.org/.
There is a mailing list (http://groups.google.com/group/django-haystack/) available for general discussion and an IRC channel (#haystack on irc.freenode.net).
