Unidirectional edge functions

Unidirectional edges allow encoding the directed edge from one cell to a neighboring cell.

h3IndexesAreNeighbors

int h3IndexesAreNeighbors(H3Index origin, H3Index destination);

Returns whether or not the provided H3Indexes are neighbors.

Returns 1 if the indexes are neighbors, 0 otherwise.

getH3UnidirectionalEdge

H3Index getH3UnidirectionalEdge(H3Index origin, H3Index destination);

Returns a unidirectional edge H3 index based on the provided origin and destination.

Returns 0 on error.

h3UnidirectionalEdgeIsValid

int h3UnidirectionalEdgeIsValid(H3Index edge);

Determines if the provided H3Index is a valid unidirectional edge index.

Returns 1 if it is a unidirectional edge H3Index, otherwise 0.

getOriginH3IndexFromUnidirectionalEdge

H3Index getOriginH3IndexFromUnidirectionalEdge(H3Index edge);

Returns the origin hexagon from the unidirectional edge H3Index.

getDestinationH3IndexFromUnidirectionalEdge

H3Index getDestinationH3IndexFromUnidirectionalEdge(H3Index edge);

Returns the destination hexagon from the unidirectional edge H3Index.

getH3IndexesFromUnidirectionalEdge

void getH3IndexesFromUnidirectionalEdge(H3Index edge, H3Index* originDestination);

Returns the origin, destination pair of hexagon IDs for the given edge ID, which are placed at originDestination[0] and originDestination[1] respectively.

getH3UnidirectionalEdgesFromHexagon

void getH3UnidirectionalEdgesFromHexagon(H3Index origin, H3Index* edges);

Provides all of the unidirectional edges from the current H3Index. edges must be of length 6, and the number of unidirectional edges placed in the array may be less than 6.

getH3UnidirectionalEdgeBoundary

void getH3UnidirectionalEdgeBoundary(H3Index edge, GeoBoundary* gb);

Provides the coordinates defining the unidirectional edge.
