    16  Package s2 is a library for working with geometry in S² (spherical geometry).
    17  
    18  Its related packages, parallel to this one, are s1 (operates on S¹), r1 (operates on ℝ¹),
    19  r2 (operates on ℝ²) and r3 (operates on ℝ³).
    20  
    21  This package provides types and functions for the S2 cell hierarchy and coordinate systems.
    22  The S2 cell hierarchy is a hierarchical decomposition of the surface of a unit sphere (S²)
    23  into “cells”; it is highly efficient, scales from continental size to under 1 cm²
    24  and preserves spatial locality (nearby cells have close IDs).
    25  
    26  More information including an in-depth introduction to S2 can be found on the
    27  S2 website https://s2geometry.io/
