MESA: A Map Service to Support Fuzzy Type-ahead Search over Geo-Textual Data
Summary: MESA offers fuzzy type-ahead over geo-textual data via a map service. It unifies incremental relaxation—spatial region expansion and exact/approximate prefix/substring matching—in a client-server framework to accelerate multiple spatial keyword variants, with an autocompletion-driven interface and customizable search.
