Lawder, J.K. and King, Peter J.H. (2001) Querying multi-dimensional data indexed using the Hilbert space-filling curve. SIGMOD Record 30 (1), pp. 19-24. ISSN 0163-5808.
Abstract
Mapping to one-dimensional values and then using a one-dimensional indexing method has been proposed as a way of indexing multi-dimensional data. Most previous related work uses the Z-Order Curve but more recently the Hilbert Curve has been considered since it has superior clustering properties. Any approach, however, can only be of practical value if there are effective methods for executing range and partial match queries. This paper describes such a method for the Hilbert Curve.
