 In MobilityDB two types of indexes has been implemented,​ namely, [[https://​habr.com/​en/​company/​postgrespro/​blog/​444742/​|GiST]] and [[https://​habr.com/​ru/​company/​postgrespro/​blog/​446624/​|SP-GiST]]. More precisely, in PostgreSQL, these types of indexes are frameworks for developing multiple types of indexes. Concerning SP-GiST indexes, in MobilityDB we have developed 4-dimensional quad-trees where the dimensions are X, Y, and possibly Z for the spatial dimension and T for the time dimension. An alternative approach would be to use [[https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​K-d_tree|K-D Trees]]. K-D trees can be implemented in PostgreSQL using the SP-GiST framework and an example [[https://​github.com/​postgres/​postgres/​blob/​master/​src/​backend/​access/​spgist/​spgkdtreeproc.c|implementation]] for simple [[https://​www.postgresql.org/​docs/​current/​datatype-geometric.html|geometric types]] exist. The goal of the project is to implement K-D indexes for MobilityDB and perform a benchmark comparison between K-D trees and the existing 4-dimensional quad-trees. In MobilityDB two types of indexes has been implemented,​ namely, [[https://​habr.com/​en/​company/​postgrespro/​blog/​444742/​|GiST]] and [[https://​habr.com/​ru/​company/​postgrespro/​blog/​446624/​|SP-GiST]].
