+**Spatial** indices enable efficient queries on geospatial objects such as - points, lines, polygons, and multipolygon. These queries use ST_DISTANCE, ST_WITHIN, ST_INTERSECTS keywords. The following are some examples that use spatial index kind:

+As long as one filter predicate uses on of the index kind, the query engine will evaluate that first before scanning the rest. For example, if you have a SQL query such as `SELECT * FROM c WHERE c.firstName = "Andrew" and CONTAINS(c.lastName, "Liu")`
+
+* The above query will first filter for entries where firstName = "Andrew" by using the index. It then pass all of the firstName = "Andrew" entries through a subsequent pipeline to evaluate the CONTAINS filter predicate.
+
+* You can speed up queries and avoid full container scans when using functions that don’t use the index (e.g. CONTAINS) by adding additional filter predicates that do use the index. The order of filter clauses isn't important. The query engine is will figure out which predicates are more selective and run the query accordingly.

 ## Querying with indexes
 
 The paths extracted when indexing data make it easy to lookup the index when processing a query. By matching the `WHERE` clause of a query with the list of indexed paths, it is possible to identify the items that match the query predicate very quickly.
