Latlon to DGGS

Latitude/Longitude to DGGS Conversion Module

This module provides functions to convert latitude and longitude coordinates to various Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS) cell identifiers. It supports multiple DGGS types including H3, S2, A5, RHEALPix, ISEA4T, ISEA3H, DGGRID, DGGAL, EASE, QTM, OLC, Geohash, GEOREF, MGRS, Tilecode, Quadkey, Maidenhead, GARS, and DIGIPIN.

Each DGGS type has its own resolution range and addressing scheme. The module includes both programmatic functions and command-line interfaces (CLI) for each conversion type.

Each function follows the pattern: latlon2(lat, lon, res=) and returns the corresponding cell identifier as a string or appropriate data type.
