A common spatial query often leads to the problem of multiple query results because a spatial database usually contains large size of data. To deal with this problem, a new categorization approach for spatial database query results was proposed. The solution consists of two steps. In the offline step, the coupling relationship between spatial objects was evaluated by considering the location proximity and semantic similarity between them, and then a set of clusters over the spatial objects could be generated by using probability density-based clustering method, where each cluster represented one type of user requirements. In the online query step, for a given spatial query, a category tree for the user was dynamically generated by using the modified C4.5 decision tree algorithm over the clusters, so that the user could easily select the subset of query results matching his/her needs by exploring the labels assigned on intermediate nodes of the tree. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed spatial object clustering method can efficiently capture both the semantic and location relationships between spatial objects. The query result categorization algorithm has good effectiveness and low search cost.
