h3_get_pentagons()

[infoplane]

Hi, I'm playing around with the h3 extension for Postgres. Using the function h3_get_pentagons() is only returning 12 results irrespective of the resolution I set in the function. My understanding is that a resolution of zero should return 122 indexes which should increase with greater resolution. I was wondering if I have missed something.

I'm using h3 version 4.1.3, postgis version 3.2.5,

Hi Marcus!

The number of hexagons will increase with greater resolution, but there are always exactly 12 pentagons at every resolution.

For questions regarding the H3 API itself you should refer to the H3 core repository, this project simply wraps the functions in a PostgreSQL API.

Cheers,

Hi Zach,

Many thanks for the clarification. I will have a look at the H3 core repository.
