Abstract:
Geographic query is composed of query
keywords and a location. Spatial keyword
queries which are queries on spatial objects
associated with textual attributes have received
significant attention in geographic information
system (GIS) recently. A spatial keyword query
takes a user location and user-supplied keywords
as arguments and returns objects that are
spatially and textually relevant to these
arguments. Geo-textual index play an important
role in spatial keyword querying. There are a
number of geo-textual indices have been
proposed in recent years. Mostly, the R-tree and
its variants and the inverted file are combined.
Most of the keywords are considered for English
language and keyword with Myanmar native
language is also necessary for the users who are
not familiar with the English language. This
paper proposes an index structure that combines
K-d tree and inverted file which is considered on
the Myanmar keywords queries to find the
desired location with Myanmar language
efficiently. Myanmar 3 Unicode is used for
keyword search.
