Spatial Index: R Trees

Data-driven structures for spatial indexing Adesh Nalpet Adimurthy · Follow Published in Towards Data Science · 10 min read · 16 hours ago — If you have been following the Spatial Index Series, it started with the need for multi-dimensional indexes and an introduction to space-filling curves, followed by a deep dive into grid systems (GeoHash and Google S2) and tessellation (Uber H3). In this post, let’s explore the R-Tree data structure (data-driven structure), which
