Industry:Computer science
A point access method which is two levels of grid files. The first level addresses second level grid files.
Industry:Computer science
A point access method which is two simultaneous grid files. Points are shuffled between the primary and secondary file to minimize the total size.
Industry:Computer science
A point access method which splits multidimensional space in different dimensions at each level. It also keeps a minimum bounding box of points accessible by each node.
Industry:Computer science
A point access method which splits space into a nonperiodic grid. Each spatial dimension is divided by a linear hash. Small sets of points are referred to by one or more cells of the grid.
