Efficient Retrieval of the Top-k Most Relevant Spatial Web Objects

Summary: Proposes a location-aware top-k retrieval framework that fuses text relevance and spatial proximity for geo-tagged web objects. Uses an inverted index for text and an R-tree for geometry, with several indexing variants and pruning-based top-k algorithms for scalable performance. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
