There are a lot of nice things about H3. At work it's our default tool for partitioning and indexing of horizontal position data.

Are you using it for non geospatial data?
No sorry, just geospatial (horizontal position on the surface of the Earth).

It should be theoretically possible to re-develop it for other spaces (it's "just" a hexagon tiling), but the H3 team put a lot of work into the details and you'd be taking on a big effort redoing that for a different space.
