Geospatial Dataset Catalog

Kontur has a variety of geospatial datasets that cover both natural and human landscape.

Our Geocint data pipeline converts any type of data into hexagonal datasets — for you, this means we can quickly integrate the specific data you need for analysis or solutions, without delays.

Learn more about H3 hexagons

Kontur datasets are represented by H3 hexagons with 400m resolution. The reason why we use H3 grid instead of the common square grid is that unlike squares, hexagons have equal distances between a hexagon centerpoint and the centers of neighboring cells. This property greatly simplifies performing analysis and smoothing over gradients.
