NAME
Geotude - OOP for performing geotude location conversions.
SYNOPSIS
$str_gt = '53281.86.93.30.75.41.67';
$gt = new Geotude(array('geotude' => $str_gt));
list($lat, $lon) = $gt->get_point();
$gt2 = new Geotude(array('latitude'=>$lat, 'longitude'=>$lon));
$geotude = $gt2->get_geotude();
DESCRIPTION
Geowhat? A Geotude is : "permanent and hierarchical. [As] a trade-off: A
Geotude is less intuitive than address, but more intuitive than
latitude/longitude. A Geotude is more precise than address, but less

longitude in to Geotude and vice versa.
