Background

What HyPlica is

Most spatial systems describe the world with coordinates — floating-point numbers that shift meaning with projection, datum, precision, and time. A Discrete Global Grid System divides the world instead into a fixed hierarchy of cells with permanent identities, so data joined to a cell once remains joined to everything else forever.

HYPLICA™ extends this beyond the map: three spatial axes and a temporal axis, traversed through a fifth dimension of resolution, using exact integer arithmetic throughout — deterministic, reversible, and drift-free from continental extents to millimetre detail.

Index

Points, tracks, volumes, and rasters resolve to zone identifiers in one deterministic pass — identical on any hardware, cloud to edge.

(x, y, z, t) → zoneID @ L

Compress

Complete spacetime footprints collapse into tiered zoneSet objects sized for storage, exchange, and edge memory alike.

10⁸ zones → one zoneSet

Query

Membership and intersection run against the compressed form — sub-millisecond answers by pure integer arithmetic.

zoneID ∩ zoneSet → hit / miss
