## :rocket: Enhancements
* Introduce a new geo backend to store geojson and filter on polygon
1. Make the `_geojson` field filterable
2. Then send your documents with a `_geojson` field filled with a valid [geojson](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7946)
3. Filter your documents with the new `_geoPolygon` filter, or the old `_geoBoudingBox` and `_geoPoints` filter
