Recently, R&D(Research and Development) is processing actively on range search in the road network environments. However, the existing representative range search techniques have shortcomings in that the greater the number of POI's, the more increased storage space or the more increased search time due to inefficient search process. Accordingly, In this paper, we proposed a range search technique using QRMP(QR-tree using Middle Point) to solve the problems of conventional range search techniques. In addition, we made a formula to obtain the total size of the storage space for QRMP and proved the excellence of the range search technique proposed in this paper through the experiment using actual road networks and POI data.
