# GeoHex for Dart

[![pub package](https://img.shields.io/pub/v/geohex.svg)](https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/geohex) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/NiKoTron/geohex/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/github/NiKoTron/geohex?branch=master) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/NiKoTron/geohex.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/NiKoTron/geohex)

Implementation of `geohex.org` encoding for Dart language.

## Usage

Encoding example:

```dart
import 'package:geohex/geohex.dart';

main() {
//Location of Capetown
final geoHexCode = GeoHex.encode(-33.91522085, 18.3758784, 4); //OM4138
}

```

Decoding example:

```dart
import 'package:geohex/geohex.dart';

main() {
//Geocode of Capetown
final geoHexZone = GeoHex.decode('OM4138'); // instance of Zone with lat -33.91522085 lon 18.3758784 and level 4
}

```

## Note

This realisation has some difference with the original lib. It's location clamping. Original `geohex.org` uses `double` representation of lat'n'lon, so theoretically, it should take more precision etc. but in fact, it leads to errors.

Refer to this - [decimal degrees](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_degrees), eight points after dot the should be enough for everything.
