This paper explores the challenges of accessing geospatial data on the web, particularly for range queries such as nearest neighbor searches. It presents two innovative algorithms: the Quad Drill Down (QDD) and the Dynamic Constrained Delaunay Triangulation (DCDT). These algorithms aim to efficiently find all objects within a specified rectangular region while minimizing the number of k-NN searches required. The paper includes experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of these approaches, contributing to improved handling of large volumes of web-based geospatial data.
