Show HN: Honeycomb – Geospatial analysis in the browser with WASM DuckDB (app.honeycomb.place)

The big idea is to use Uber's H3 spatial index to harmonize spatial data from different sources, then display it on a map and allow for interactive aggregation. Everything is done in the browser on-the-fly. Behind the scenes is DuckDB, Turf.js, and Deck.gl. Very impressed with the DuckDB performance.
