In spatstat/s2: Google's S2 Library for Geometry on the Sphere

Description

R bindings for Google's s2 library for geometric calculations on the sphere.

Details

This package aims at providing bindings for the C++ library s2 for geometry on the sphere. The C++ library was originally developed by Google under the Apache license. At the moment very few things are exposed and the main concern is to make the C++ code compile with the R toolchain on the three major platforms and have the package accepted on CRAN. Once this proof of concept has been achieved more of the underlying features will be made available to the useR.
