Multi-Entry Search Trees for PostgreSQL

This repository contains implementations for the Multi-Entry GiST and SP-GiST access methods. These access methods are variations of the GiST and SP-GiST indices, allowing for more efficient indexing of complex and composite data types.

Contents

The repository contains 3 PostgreSQL extensions split into 3 separate folders:

  • mest:
    • contains the Multi-Entry GiST access method and an implementation of a multi-entry R-tree for the PostgreSQL multirange and path types.
    • contains the Multi-Entry SP-GiST access method and an implementation of a multi-entry Quadtree for the PostgreSQL multirange and path types.
  • postgis-mest:
    • contains the implementation of a multi-entry R-tree, multi-entry Quadtree, and multi-entry Kd-tree for the PostGIS geometry and geography types.
  • mobilitydb-mest:
    • contains the implementation of a multi-entry R-tree, multi-entry Quadtree, and multi-entry Kd-tree for the MobilityDB spanset and tgeompoint types.

For more information about each extension, please refer to their associated README file.
