This makes them good for geospatial applications (they’re used inside Google maps, or at least were). In image processing they’re useful for dithering, compression, and I’ve gotten good results training image models on an HC representation rather than a grid. In short, anywhere that maintaining coherence between neighbouring pixels is beneficial.
