npub106wljlems22dxxdkr7y6uvnu93ed6lvd3rv6y5et3x977q6ngxjqutcln7 (npub106w…cln7) I’ll see if I can explain why I personally like H3:
1. “Hexagons are the bestagons!” —CGP Grey
2. Icosahedral grid is based on Buckminster Fuller’s Dymaxion map, which I like.
3. H3 cells are more-or-less the same area across the globe which can’t be said for plain hex grids overlaid on non equal-area projections.
4. While H3’s levels of resolution are not 1:1 composable with adjacent levels, they did design it so that the cell vertices stay fixed.
