Spatial Join Queries Based on QR-Tree

Article Preview

Abstract:

Spatial join query is a most important query in the spatial database.How to improve the efficiency of a spatial join is a serious question.In this paper,we propose a new algorithm to process spatial join problem.The algorithm is based on the QR-tree,which combines the good property of the R-tree and quadtree.By dividing the space into several subspaces,the algorithm implement the spatial join query on the small R-tree.We compare the algorithm with the R-tree join algorithm of Brinkhoff. Experiments demonstrate the proposed algorithms have high query efficiency.
