>GiST</ACRONYM
> stands for Generalized Search Tree.  It is a
   balanced, tree-structured access method, that acts as a base template in
   which to implement arbitrary indexing schemes. B-trees, R-trees and many
   other indexing schemes can be implemented in <ACRONYM

  of custom data types with the appropriate access methods, by
  an expert in the domain of the data type, rather than a database expert.
