h3_longlatash3string function

Applies to: check marked yes Databricks SQL check marked yes Databricks Runtime 11.3 LTS and above

Returns the H3 cell ID (as a hexadecimal STRING) corresponding to the provided longitude and latitude at the specified resolution.

Syntax

h3_longlatash3string ( longitudeExpr, latitudeExpr, resolutionExpr )

Arguments

  • longitudeExpr: A DOUBLE expression representing the longitude (in degrees) of the location whose H3 cell ID we want to compute.
  • latitudeExpr: A DOUBLE expression representing the latitude (in degrees) of the location whose H3 cell ID we want to compute.
  • resolutionExpr: An INT expression, whose value is expected to be between 0 and 15 inclusive, specifying the resolution for the H3 cell ID.

Returns

A value of the type of STRING representing, as a hexadecimal string, the H3 cell ID of the input location at the specified resolution.

The function returns NULL if any of the three input expressions is NULL. Values outside [-180, 180] for the longitude expression, and [-90, 90] for the latitude expression are mapped to their equivalents within these ranges. The longitude and latitude values are expected to be in the WGS84 coordinate reference system.
