A multi-resolution HEALPix data structure for spherically mapped point data
Data describing entities with locations that are points on a sphere are described as spherically mapped. Several data structures designed for spherically mapped data have been developed. One of them, known as Hierarchical Equal Area iso-Latitude Pixelization (HEALPix), partitions the sphere into twe...
