Bidirectional mapping between rhombic triacontahedron and icosahedral hexagonal discrete global grid systems

ABSTRACTThe icosahedron is currently the mainstream polygon in research and application of discrete global grid systems (DGGS). However, compared to the rhombic triacontahedron (RT), the icosahedron has disadvantages, such as lower sphere-fitting accuracy, greater projection distortion, and difficul...
