    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for indexed geospatial predicate search. An example method performed by at least one hardware processor includes decoding a query with a geospatial predicate. The geospatial predicate is configured between a geography data column and a constant geography object. The method further includes computing a first covering for a data value of a plurality of data values in the geography data column. The first covering includes a first set of cells in a hierarchical grid representation of a geography. The first set of cells represents a surface of the geography associated with the data value. A second covering is computed for the constant geography object. A determination is made on whether to prune at least one partition of a database organized into a set of partitions and including the geography data column based on a comparison between the first covering and the second covering.
