## 60.2. Built-in Operator Classes

The core Postgres Pro distribution includes the SP-GiST operator classes shown in Table 60.1.

Table 60.1. Built-in SP-GiST Operator Classes

Name | Indexed Data Type | Indexable Operators
--- | --- | ---
`kd_point_ops` | `point` | `<<` `<@` `<^` `>>` `>^` `~=`
`quad_point_ops` | `point` | `<<` `<@` `<^` `>>` `>^` `~=`
`range_ops` | any range type | `&&` `&<` `&>` `-|-` `<<` `<@` `=` `>>` `@>`
`box_ops` | `box` | `<<` `&<` `&&` `&>` `>>` `~=` `@>` `<@` `&<|` `<<|` `|>>` `|&>`
`text_ops` | `text` | `<` `<=` `=` `>` `>=` `~<=~` `~<~` `~>=~` `~>~`
`inet_ops` | `inet`, `cidr` | `&&` `>>` `>>=` `>` `>=` `<>` `<<` `<<=` `<` `<=` `=`

Of the two operator classes for type `point`, `quad_point_ops` is the default. `kd_point_ops` supports the same operators but uses a different index data structure that may offer better performance in some applications.
