Benchmarking Spatial Join Operations with Spatial Output

Summary: Benchmarking spatial join with spatial output across planar line segments; R-tree, R*-tree, R+-tree, PMR quadtree; report build and join times. Disjoint-space decompositions (R+-tree; PMR quadtree) outperform non-disjoint ones (R-tree; R*-tree); PMR scales with output. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
