N2 - This paper proposes a new interleaving-based method for spatial clustering developed by combining gray codes with a new ordering technique called nu-ordering. This method is compared with two existing interleaving-based techniques and another technique called Hilbert-ordering. The performance comparison is done by means of a simulation study. The results show that the choice of the technique affects the clustering performance dramatically. Among the four techniques considered, both nu-ordering and hilbert method outperformed the other two methods by more than 35%; however, with minor exceptions, the hilbert technique was the best among the four techniques evaluated.
