    Abstract: A database engine may track granularity levels for accessing a spatial index. Granularity levels of a spatial index may be evaluated to identify those granularity levels that identify data objects in a data set. An indication of the identified granularity levels may be stored as part of metadata for the data set. When a spatial query directed to the data set is received, the spatial index may be accessed at the identified granularity levels indicated in the metadata for the data set as part of processing the spatial query.

    Abstract: A storage engine may selectively maintain a spatial index for accessing spatial data. A spatial query may be received and the portions of the spatial index to evaluate may be determined by replacing those portions associated with regions identified for the query that do not exist in the spatial index with portions that do exist in the spatial index and are associated with a region that includes the identified regions. When inserting spatial objects into the spatial index, a determination may be made whether to create a new portion in the index if none currently exist that match a spatial index value for a new spatial object or to modify the spatial index value of the spatial object to insert the spatial object into an existing portion of the spatial index.
