The hexagonal grid system is created on the planar faces of a sphere-circumscribed icosahedron, and the grid cells are then projected to the surface of the sphere using an inverse face-centered polyhedral gnomonic projection. The coordinate reference system (CRS) is spherical coordinates with the [WGS84](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WGS84)/[EPSG:4326](https://epsg.io/4326) authalic radius. It is common to use WGS84 CRS data with the H3 library.
