GIS system integration

Open geoHeil opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

https://github.com/uber/h3/wiki/Roadmap lists Integration with GIS systems, such as QGIS. [HelpWanted]

has there been any progress so far? Are there any suggestions?

I myself currently load the shapefile of a country and manually generate hexagons, their centroids and WKT line strings as needed, but this is not very nice to use.

I have seen https://github.com/ThomasG77/30DayMapChallenge/blob/master/day4_hexagons/data/h3-processing.py but this also does not seem to be fully integrated.

We're not aware of a well-supported QGIS package for H3, but we'd love to see one! For QGIS specifically, it would probably depend on the h3-py package, and development on this might want to wait until the Cython work is complete and released, as this will greatly simplify packaging.

FYI: https://github.com/conda-forge/h3-py-feedstock/ is already out there to support easy packaging via conda

Curious about this question at the end of 2022, does anyone have updates?
