Abstract
Techniques for extending the capabilities of an event processing system to support the processing of spatial data. In one set of embodiments, this extensibility can be provided via a plug-in extension component referred to herein as a spatial data cartridge. The spatial data cartridge can enable the event processing system to support spatial data types (e.g., point, polygon, etc.) and various operations related to such data types (e.g., proximity determinations, overlap determinations, etc.). The spatial data cartridge can also define an indexing scheme that can be integrated with the capabilities of the event processing system to support the indexing of spatial data. Using the spatial data cartridge, the event processing system can operate on spatial data even if spatial data formats are not natively supported by the system.
