How to offload geography operation to SQL Server in Entity Framework Core 1.0

This is how i've done it. Obviously you don't get the features of the DbGeography type, but for simple queries it should suffice.

  public async Task<List<PointOfInterest>> Execute(double latitude, double longitude, int radius)
        {
            return await this.context.PointsOfInterest.FromSql(

            "DECLARE @point geography = geography::Point(@p0, @p1, 4326); " +

            "SELECT Id, DateAdded, Latitude, Longitude " +
            "FROM dbo.PointsOfInterest " +
            "WHERE @point.STDistance(Location) <= @p2",
            longitude,
             latitude,
            radius).ToListAsync();
        }
