Detailed Description

A spatial index for QgsFeature objects.

QgsSpatialIndex objects are implicitly shared and can be inexpensively copied.

Note
While the underlying libspatialindex is not thread safe on some platforms, the QgsSpatialIndex class implements its own locks and accordingly, a single QgsSpatialIndex object can safely be used across multiple threads.

QgsSpatialIndexKDBush, which is an optimised non-mutable index for point geometries only.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ Flags

typedef QFlags< Flag > QgsSpatialIndex::Flags

Definition at line 79 of file qgsspatialindex.h.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Flag

Flags controlling index behavior.

Enumerator
FlagStoreFeatureGeometries 

Indicates that the spatial index should also store feature geometries. This requires more memory, but can speed up operations by avoiding additional requests to data providers to fetch matching feature geometries. Additionally, it is required for non-bounding box nearest neighbor searches.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsSpatialIndex() [1/5]

QgsSpatialIndex::QgsSpatialIndex ( QgsSpatialIndex::Flags  flags = QgsSpatialIndex::Flags())

Constructor for QgsSpatialIndex.

Creates an empty R-tree index.

Definition at line 341 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ QgsSpatialIndex() [2/5]

QgsSpatialIndex::QgsSpatialIndex ( const QgsFeatureIterator fi,
QgsFeedback feedback = nullptr,
QgsSpatialIndex::Flags  flags = QgsSpatialIndex::Flags() 
)
explicit

Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the iterator.

This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.

The optional feedback object can be used to allow cancellation of bulk feature loading. Ownership of feedback is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds that of the spatial index construction.

Definition at line 346 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ QgsSpatialIndex() [3/5]

QgsSpatialIndex::QgsSpatialIndex ( const QgsFeatureIterator fi,
const std::function< bool(const QgsFeature &) > &  callback,
QgsSpatialIndex::Flags  flags = QgsSpatialIndex::Flags() 
)
explicit

Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the iterator.

This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.

This construct and bulk load variant allows for a callback function to be specified, which is called for each added feature in turn. It allows for bulk spatial index load along with other feature based operations on a single iteration through a feature source. If callback returns false, the load and iteration is canceled.

Note
Not available in Python bindings

◆ QgsSpatialIndex() [4/5]

QgsSpatialIndex::QgsSpatialIndex ( const QgsFeatureSource source,
QgsFeedback feedback = nullptr,
QgsSpatialIndex::Flags  flags = QgsSpatialIndex::Flags() 
)
explicit

Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the source.

This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.

The optional feedback object can be used to allow cancellation of bulk feature loading. Ownership of feedback is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds that of the spatial index construction.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addFeature() [1/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::addFeature ( QgsFeature feature,
QgsFeatureSink::Flags  flags = QgsFeatureSink::Flags() 
)
overridevirtual

Adds a feature to the index.

The flags argument is ignored.

Since
QGIS 3.4

Reimplemented from QgsFeatureSink.

Definition at line 403 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ addFeature() [2/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::addFeature ( QgsFeatureId  id,
const QgsRectangle bounds 
)

Add a feature id to the index with a specified bounding box.

Returns
true if feature was successfully added to index.
Since
QGIS 3.4

Definition at line 444 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ addFeatures()

bool QgsSpatialIndex::addFeatures ( QgsFeatureList features,
QgsFeatureSink::Flags  flags = QgsFeatureSink::Flags() 
)
overridevirtual

Adds a list of features to the index.

The flags argument is ignored.

See also
addFeature()

Implements QgsFeatureSink.

Definition at line 422 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ deleteFeature() [1/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::deleteFeature ( const QgsFeature feature)

Removes a feature from the index.

Definition at line 474 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ deleteFeature() [2/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::deleteFeature ( QgsFeatureId  id,
const QgsRectangle bounds 
)

Removes a feature from the index by id and bounds.

Since
QGIS 3.36

Definition at line 488 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ geometry()

QgsGeometry QgsSpatialIndex::geometry ( QgsFeatureId  id) const

Returns the stored geometry for the indexed feature with matching id.

Geometry is only stored if the QgsSpatialIndex was created with the FlagStoreFeatureGeometries flag.

Since
QGIS 3.6

Definition at line 563 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ insertFeature() [1/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::insertFeature ( const QgsFeature feature)

Adds a feature to the index.

Deprecated:
QGIS 3.40. Use addFeature() instead.

Definition at line 433 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ insertFeature() [2/2]

bool QgsSpatialIndex::insertFeature ( QgsFeatureId  id,
const QgsRectangle bounds 
)

Add a feature id to the index with a specified bounding box.

Returns
true if feature was successfully added to index.
Deprecated:
QGIS 3.40. Use addFeature() instead.

Definition at line 439 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ intersects()

QList< QgsFeatureId > QgsSpatialIndex::intersects ( const QgsRectangle rectangle) const

Returns a list of features with a bounding box which intersects the specified rectangle.

Note
The intersection test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes only, so for non-point geometry features it is necessary to manually test the returned features for exact geometry intersection when required.

Definition at line 499 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ nearestNeighbor() [1/2]

QList< QgsFeatureId > QgsSpatialIndex::nearestNeighbor ( const QgsGeometry geometry,
int  neighbors = 1,
double  maxDistance = 0 
) const

Returns nearest neighbors to a geometry.

The number of neighbors returned is specified by the neighbors argument.

If the maxDistance argument is greater than 0, then only features within the specified distance of point will be considered.

Note that in some cases the number of returned features may differ from the requested number of neighbors. E.g. if not enough features exist within the maxDistance of the search point. If multiple features are equidistant from the search point then the number of returned feature IDs may exceed neighbors.

Warning
If this QgsSpatialIndex object was not constructed with the FlagStoreFeatureGeometries flag, then the nearest neighbor test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes ONLY, so for non-point geometry features this method is not guaranteed to return the actual closest neighbors.
Since
QGIS 3.8

Definition at line 538 of file qgsspatialindex.cpp.

◆ nearestNeighbor() [2/2]

QList< QgsFeatureId > QgsSpatialIndex::nearestNeighbor ( const QgsPointXY point,
int  neighbors = 1,
double  maxDistance = 0 
) const

Returns nearest neighbors to a point.

The number of neighbors returned is specified by the neighbors argument.

If the maxDistance argument is greater than 0, then only features within the specified distance of point will be considered.

Note that in some cases the number of returned features may differ from the requested number of neighbors. E.g. if not enough features exist within the maxDistance of the search point. If multiple features are equidistant from the search point then the number of returned feature IDs may exceed neighbors.

Warning
If this QgsSpatialIndex object was not constructed with the FlagStoreFeatureGeometries flag, then the nearest neighbor test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes ONLY, so for non-point geometry features this method is not guaranteed to return the actual closest neighbors.
