[SoC] Weekly report #7 : Implement sp-gist clustering in PostGIS and cartoDB

[mohit kumar]

Hi all,

*What I *
*got done this week?*
Implemented the basic indexing using the initial spgist on point datatype.
Tried using geometry as the datatype but no success as of now.


*What do I plan on doing next week?*
Integrating the baisc indexing in the cartoDB's API. In parallel try to
modify sp-gist to work with geometry datatype to inculcate more operators
for more geometry operations, right now point data type do not support any
operations.


*Am I blocked on anything?*
Integrating geometry datatype is still becoming an issue, but I am working
on it with the support of strk and the community.

I have reviewed my timeline and despite of a lot of issues in the first
month we are only a week late in our schedule. Despite few of the goals of
the project might change as the scope of spgist is a bit limited as of now.
