ArborX: a performance portable geometric search library

The ArborX library allows users to search for nearby geometric objects in a performance portable way. By geometric search, we mean the task of finding the nearest neighbors of an object, or finding all objects within a certain distance. These tasks are often called k-nearest neighbor search (kNN) and radius-based search. ArborX is designed to run on a variety of hardware, from commodity CPUs to specialized accelerators (GPUs), all the while providing high performance. ArborX relies on Kokkos for a programming model abstraction.

This Wiki provides a number of resources for ArborX users and developers.
