hexify_lonlat_to_cell: Convert longitude/latitude to cell ID

In hexify: Equal-Area Hex Grids on the 'Snyder' 'ISEA' 'Icosahedron'

Convert longitude/latitude to cell ID

Description

Converts geographic coordinates to DGGRID-compatible cell identifiers. This is the primary function for geocoding points to grid cells.

Usage

hexify_lonlat_to_cell(lon, lat, resolution, aperture)

Arguments

lon	Numeric vector of longitudes in degrees
lat	Numeric vector of latitudes in degrees
resolution	Grid resolution (integer >= 0)
aperture	Grid aperture (3, 4, or 7)

Details

Returns DGGRID-compatible cell identifiers. The cell ID uniquely identifies each hexagonal cell in the global grid.

For a grid-object interface, use lonlat_to_cell.

Value

Numeric vector of cell IDs (1-based)

See Also

lonlat_to_cell for the recommended S4 interface, hexify_cell_to_lonlat for the inverse operation
