github.com/aurelien-rainone/go-rquad (go): Package rquad proposes various implementations of region quadtrees. The region quadtree is a special kind of quadtree that recursively subdivides a 2D dimensional space into 4, smaller and generally equal rectangular regions, until the wanted quadtree resolution has been reached, or no further subdivisions can be performed.  Region quadtree may be used for image processing, in this case a node represents a rectangular region of an image in which all pixels have the same color.  A region quadtree may also be used as a variable resolution representation of a data field. For example, the temperatures in an area may be stored as a quadtree, with each leaf node storing the average temperature over the subregion it represents.  Quadtree implementations in this package use the binimg.Scanner interface to represent the complete area, and provide us with a way to know if a particular sub-area is to be considered uniform, in which case further subdivision is not necessary, or not.
