Package s2 implements types and functions for working with geometry in S² (spherical geometry).
Its related packages, parallel to this one, are s1 (operates on S¹), r1 (operates on ¹)
and r3 (operates on ³).
This package provides types and functions for the S2 cell hierarchy and coordinate systems.
The S2 cell hierarchy is a hierarchical decomposition of the surface of a unit sphere (S²)
into ``cells''; it is highly efficient, scales from continental size to under 1 cm²
and preserves spatial locality (nearby cells have close IDs).
A presentation that gives an overview of S2 is
