h3_resolution
function
Applies to: Databricks SQL Databricks Runtime 11.3 LTS and above
Returns the resolution of the input H3 cell.
Arguments
h3CellIdExpr
: A BIGINT expression, or a hexadecimal STRING expression representing an H3 cell ID.
Returns
A value of whose type INT between 0 and 15, that is the resolution of the input H3 cell ID.
The function returns NULL if the input is NULL.
The function does partial validation regarding whether the input argument is a valid H3 cell ID. A necessary, but not sufficient condition for a valid H3 ID is that its value is between 0x08001fffffffffff
and 0x08ff3b6db6db6db6
.
The behavior of the function is undefined if the input cell ID is not a valid cell ID.
Error conditions
If
h3CellIdExpr
is a STRING that cannot be converted to a BIGINT or corresponds to a BIGINT value that is smaller than0x08001fffffffffff
or larger than0x08ff3b6db6db6db6
, the function returns H3_INVALID_CELL_ID.
