#2d sphere 
{type: 'point', coordinates: [40 ,5 ]}

#2d sphere index creation 

db[:zips].indexes.create_one({:loc=>Mongo::Index::GEO2DSPHERE})

#2d sphere queries 
db[:zips].find(:loc=> 
                   {:$near => { 
                     :$geometry=>{:type=>"Point", :coordinates=>[-76.625203, 39.29463]},
                      :$minDistance => 10000,
                      :$maxDistance => 50000

            }
        }).each { |r| pp r}
