Abstract

A number of spatiotemporal access methods such as 3DR-Tree and MV3R-tree have been proposed for timestamp and interval query. These access methods consist of a single index structure covering the entire time span, and thus the performances quickly degrade since the indexed time region gets large as time progresses. To overcome the problem, we propose to employ time-based partitioning on the R-tree called Time-Based Partitioning R-tree (TPR-Tree). Since the structure of the TPR-Tree efficiently fits various queries on two dimensional data, it significantly outperforms other access methods for queries of various timestamps and time intervals. Extensive simulation validates the performance of the proposed scheme.
