Answer / a g srikanth
Bitmap Index is an index that can be used on low
cardinality columns with a large number of rows. Low
cardinality columns are the ones with less number of
distinct values (eg.gender columns with just two distinct
values Male & Female).
Bitmap indexes are also useful in DWH applications where a
large table is joined with many small tables in a
denormalized star schema.

Answer / daid kumar
bitmap Index is Used mainly in decision support systems
because it returns value in bit like 0 and 1.

CREATE BITMAP JOIN INDEX <index_name>
ON <table_name> (<table_name.column_name>)
FROM <table_name, table_name>
WHERE <join_condition>
