R Plus TreeR+ tree is a variant of R tree for indexing spatial information. Difference between R+ trees and R trees - R+ trees is a compromise between R tree and K-D-B tree.
- It avoids overlapping of internal nodes by inserting an object into multiple leaves if necessary
- R+ trees differ R trees:
- Nodes are not guaranteed to be at least half filled
- The entries of any internal node do not overlap
- An object ID may be stored in more than one leaf node
Advantages - Because nodes are not overlapped with each other, Point query performance is benefits from the non-overlapping of nodes
- A single path is followed and fewer nodes are visited than with the R-tree
Disadvantages - Since rectangles are duplicated, R+ tree can be larger than R tree built on same data set.
- Construction and maintenance of R+ tree are more complex than R tree and other variants of R tree.
