* The GeoHex is a latitude/longitude encoding system invented by sa2da.
* GeoHex divides geometry regions into hexagonal grid and set an unique identifier to each grid. It supports only Japan region so far.
* The coding idea is opened under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.1 Japan Lisence.

## GEOHEX GEM DESCRIPTION
This GeoHex Ruby gem can convert latitude/longitude to GeoHex code each others.
* Encode from latitude/longitude to GeoHex code to an arbitrary level of precision
* Decode from GeoHex code to latitude/longitude and level of precision
## INSTALL
sudo gem install geohex
## QUICK START
require 'geohex'
GeoHex.encode(35.647401,139.716911,1)
=> '132KpuG'
GeoHex.decode('0dMV')
=> [24.338279000000004,124.1577708779443,7]
## FEATURES
require 'geohex'
geohex = GeoHex.new(35.647401,139.716911,1)
geohex.code
=> '132KpuG'
geohex = GeoHex.decode('0dMV')
geohex.lat
=> 24.338279000000004
