MariaDB and spatial indexes
Hi
I completed my MSc thesis, that was performed with the co-supervision of
Sergei Golubchik from Monty Program AB.
It's titled "Towards the universal spatial data model based indexing and
its implementation in MySQL" which translates into doing a literature
overview for R-tree based spatial indexes, GiST trees (Generalized
Search Trees) and implementing them in MyISAM. The work is in progress!
In case you are interested in the algorithm details of these indexes:
* Thesis text:

* Current patches: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bw2cq2525zypi6m/patches.tar.gz
Many many thanks to Sergei for all his help and support :)
Regards
Vangelis
