Abstract
A database system operates by: executing a query against a relational database table indicating a predicate applied to geospatial data of a geospatial data column, based on: applying an inner predicate to internal level nodes when traversing a set of internal levels of the each tree-based index structure to identify a first subset of leaf nodes in a plurality of leaf nodes of the each tree-based index structure based on identifying internal nodes having internal node bounding boxes meeting the inner predicate; and applying a leaf predicate to only leaf nodes included in the first subset of leaf nodes of the tree-based index structure to identify a second subset of leaf nodes of the first subset of leaf nodes corresponding to only leaf nodes of the first subset of leaf nodes having corresponding leaf node bounding boxes meeting the leaf predicate; wherein a query resultant of the query is generated based on geospatial objects of the geospatial data column for ones of a plurality of rows of the relational database table indicated by the second subset of leaf nodes.
