neighbours: Get neighbours to geohashes

In Ironholds/geohash: Tools for Geohash Creation and Manipulation

Description

Geohashes are calculated using a fixed-sized box, which means it's easy to take a geohash and extract the neighbouring boxes around it, in each direction. These functions either extract all neighbours, or individual neighbours, depending on your preference.

Usage

north(hashes)

northeast(hashes)

east(hashes)

southeast(hashes)
