Could this be possible with this module? http://drupal.org/project/openlayers_solr

Cartaro does not currently have a Solr integration. The openlayers_solr module does not provide spatial filters – it is displaying a feature for each document returned by Solr. In order to get acceptable speed with result filtering one needs to make sure that Solr's indices can be used. Thus if you need spatial filtering, you need to apply this filters in Solr itself and then the openlayers_solr module should be suitable. See http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SpatialSearch for pointers and note that spatial filtering in Solr is independent of Cartaro except for the query building.

Hello,
is there any roadmap for integrating Apache Solr with Cartaro for spatial searching?
thanks

No roadmap yet, just many ideas. One of them is to use PostgreSQL's full text search capabilities instead of Solr since this would allow better combination with spatial search. We will keep the discussion going in #1917984: [META] Query support in Cartaro.
