The document provides commands for adding spatial data to MongoDB. It includes steps to import coordinate data from a JSON file into a MongoDB collection called "parkpoints", build a 2D index on the "pos" field, and perform simple spatial queries and a geoNear query to find documents near a given location. It also shows how to create a new "checkin" collection, insert documents with location data, update an existing document, and query the checkin collection.
