Chuiqing, The OGR Shapefile driver supports spatial indexing through qix files. To explicitly create a spatial index use the Create Index command:
CREATE SPATIAL INDEX ON tablename [DEPTH N] Depth can range from 1 to 12. You can issue the SQL command using ogrinfo. ogrinfo -sql 'CREATE SPATIAL INDEX ON shapefilename [DEPTH N]' path/to/shapefile/directory http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_shapefile.html -> Spatial and Attribute Indexing.
