Open DOI

Open datasets on the HEALPix grid

Datasets published on the HEALPix / WGS84 ellipsoid that anyone can access.

Datasets published on the HEALPix / WGS84 grid will be listed here. Have one to add? Open a pull request on the GRID4EARTH organisation.

Add your contribution

Built something with the HEALPix DGGS tools — an example, a replication, a dataset? Adding it to this page is a few lines of text. The step-by-step guide shows exactly how, with a copy-paste template.
