Abstract: With the growth of spatial data generated by scientific research, especially two-dimensional data and the ongoing development of NoSQL-type database technology, more and more spatial data is now stored in NoSQL databases. LevelDB is an open source Key-Value NoSQL database that is widely used because it offers excellent write performance based on LSM architecture. Given the limitations of the Key-Value structure, it is impossible to index spatial data effectively. For this problem, a LevelDB and R-treebased secondary index was proposed to support spatial two-dimensional data indexing and neighbor queries. Experimental results show that the structure has good usability.

Key words: Key-Value database, Seconday index, R-tree
