Project mention: Hexagons and Hilbert Curves – The Horrors of Distributed Spatial Indices | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-22I experimented with geospatial Hilbert Curves as a Postgres extension [0] for PostGIS using the S2 [1] spherical geometry library. S2 uses a scale free cell coverage pattern that is numbered using six interlocking space filling Hilbert Curves [2].
By having both high level (cell) and low level (cell id) geometries it was a very powerful library which allowed projection from the hilbert space into a Postgres spatial index (spgist) including various trees, like noted in this article. It appears to be still quite active in development.

Project mention: I built an open-source library to manage and query your geospatial data efficiently. This approach has been tested with applications up to a scale of ~89m requests per day and worked like a charm. You can Star the repository to help it grow.
