Link on why HEALPix is used in geoscience #2
Description
Originally developed for cosmological studies and the analysis of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), HEALPix has since expanded into geoinformatics and Earth observation, facilitating scalable spatial data analysis.
This is interesting, but someone new to HEALPix may wonder why HEALPix has expanded into geoinformatics and Earth observation. Perhaps can add a link to a blog post or open access paper about why HEALPix is good for geoscience?
Perhaps it might also be worth linking to notable differences between geospatial HEALPix and astronomical HEALPix (if there are any) - since this repo contains tools that are used by both domains.
