# Bitmap index

A bitmap index is a special kind of database index that uses bitmaps .

Bitmap indexes have traditionally been considered to work well for data such as gender, which has a small number of distinct values, e.g., male and female, but many occurrences of those values. This would happen if, for example, you had gender data for each resident in a city. Bitmap indexes have a significant space and performance advantage over other structures for such data. However, some researchers argue that Bitmap indexes are also useful for unique valued data which is not updated frequently.[1] Bitmap indexes use bit arrays (commonly called "bitmaps") and answer queries by performing bitwise logical operations on these bitmaps
