Crate surface_grid

A crate providing data structures for square-tiled grids wrapped around the surface of certain objects. This create was intended to be used for the creation of cellular automata on non-flat grids. The crate provides a trait SurfaceGrid with an associated type Point which can be used to traverse the grid squares. Additionally, for grids that wrap a sphere the Point type implements the SpherePoint trait providing conversions between geographic and surface grid coordinates.

Available Surfaces

Spheres

• RectangleSphereGrid - Uses an equirectangular projection to wrap a rectangle around the sphere.
• CubeSphereGrid - Projects a cube over the sphere with each face being a square grid.

Modules

• sphere
  A module containing grids wrapped around spheres.

Traits

• GridPoint
  A point on a surface grid.
• SurfaceGrid
  A grid wrapped around a surface.
