James Willis closed SEDONA-702. ------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > IndexedGridPartitioner > ---------------------- > > Key: SEDONA-702 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SEDONA-702 > Project: Apache Sedona > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: James Willis > Priority: Minor > Labels: pull-request-available > Time Spent: 1h 50m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > The FlatGridPartitioner is useful when the `Envelopes` of the partitions to > be used are already known. > However, placing `n` geometries in `m` partitions takes `O(n*m)` time. `m` is > always smaller than `n` and generally much smaller. > > The time cost of building an index on the partitions and placing all > geometries will be `O(n*log(m) + m*log(m))`. > > In most cases `n >> m` so it makes sense to build this index in these cases. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
