The spatial proximity and text similarity between objects and the query are considered during query processing. In order to better meet the personal-ized needs of users and improve the accuracy and real-time of spatial keyword query results, we propose the Top-k spatial keyword query based on reachability (RSKQ). Such query returns the k best objects that satisfy the reachability and query keyword constraints according to a comprehensive score, which considers the spatial proximity, text similarity, and accessibility between the query and the object. Firstly, an efficient index called SRTR-tree is proposed, which can intelligently organize road network structure information, keywords and location information of spatio-textual objects, and vehicle trajectory information. Moreover , several pruning techniques are designed to prune massive objects irrelevant to the query according to accessibility, spatial proximity, and textual similarity, so as to speed up query processing. Based on the SRTR-tree and pruning strategies, a non-trivial basic algorithm is proposed to process RSKQ queries. In addition, we introduce a more efficient optimized algorithm to improve the efficiency of query processing. Finally, a series of experimental evaluations are carried out to show the effectiveness of our methods.
