PHP and MongoDB, Geospatial query example
This video demonstrates how to use a vanilla MongoDB installation to create a collection of objects and search them using a '2dsphere' index.
Code can be found here:

In the example, I am creating a directory of services for health related organisations.
This is only a basic demonstration of how to hang things together - I hope it helps.
