How to search for all maps that intersect a point?

Suppose I have an organization that has published a large number of maps.

I would like to take a point (lat/long) and search for all maps whose extent intersects that point.

Is this possible? 

Better yet, could the search include keywords and a point of interest?

Thanks!

There's nothing out of the box, but the Portal API does support passing in a bounding box. You may have noticed that all items have an extent property (although this is not automatically set for those items that don't have an inherent extent, like URLs).

I don't know if the various web apis wrap this search request.

Hope this helps,

Mike
