Frybits-Geohash

A pure Kotlin/Multiplatform geohashing library.

What is a Geohash? TL;DR - It is an encoded representation of a geographic location as a string.

Current Supported Platforms:

• Java 8
• Android API 14+ (It's the Java library with some extra extension functions)

Project Status

This project is actively being worked on, but the Geohash class and extension functions are completed. The following are a list of tasks and their current status:

• Geohash algorithm - DONE
• Neighbor searches - DONE
• Parent/Children geohashes - DONE
• BoundingBox/Circular queries - INCOMPLETE
• Distribution - INCOMPLETE
• CI/Automated testing - INCOMPLETE
• README/Wiki - IN PROGRESS
• iOS setup - INCOMPLETE
• Example projects:
  • Java - INCOMPLETE
  • Javascript - INCOMPLETE
  • Android - INCOMPLETE
  • iOS - INCOMPLETE
  • Native INCOMPLETE

Usage

Kotlin

// Generating a simple geohash
val geohash = Geohash(31.0123, 115.0123, 10)
println(geohash.geohash) // wt9b3jt7sz

// Get a neighbor
val north = geohash.neighborAt(Direction.NORTH)
println(north.geohash) // wt9b3jt7ub

// Get all neighbors
val neighbors = geohash.surroundingGeohashes(includeSelf = true) // Include self in the list of neighbors
println(neighbors) // Prints all neighbors starting from NORTH and going clockwise

// Getting children geohashes
geohash.children().forEach { g -> 
    println(g.geohash) // Prints all children of "wt9b3jt7sz"
}

Java

// Generating a simple geohash
Geohash geohash = Geohash(31.0123, 115.0123, 10);
System.out.println(geohash.getGeohash()); // wt9b3jt7sz

// Get a neighbor
Geohash north = geohash.getNeighbor(Direction.NORTH);
System.out.println(north.getGeohash()); // wt9b3jt7ub

// Get all neighbors
List<Geohash> neighbors = geohash.getSurroundingGeohashes(true); // Include self in the list of neighbors
System.out.println(neighbors); // Prints all neighbors starting from NORTH and going clockwise

// Getting children geohashes
for (Geohash g : geohash.children()) {
    System.out.println(g.getGeohash()); // Prints all children of "wt9b3jt7sz"
}

Others coming soon
