A5 is a geospatial index that partitions the world into pentagonal cells. The cells are available at 32 different resolution levels, with the largest cell covering the whole world, and the smallest less than 30mm². Within each resolution level the cells have equal area, to within 2%. A5 cells provide simple way to represent spatial data as a collection of cells, which together represent regions on the globe.

  • Scalable reader for OpenStreetMap ProtoBuffer (pbf) files.
  • Is based on top of DuckDB1 with its Spatial2 extension.
  • Saves files in the GeoParquet3 file format for easier integration with modern cloud stacks.
  • Utilizes multithreading unlike GDAL that works in a single thread only.
  • Can filter data based on geometry without the need for ogr2ogr clipping before operation.
  • Can filter data based on OSM tags.
  • Utilizes caching to reduce repeatable computations.

It does this by leveraging the ability of clients issuing ​HTTP GET range requests to ask for just the parts of a file they need.
