All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`protected void`	`addOffBitToEnd()`
`protected void`	`addOnBitToEnd()`
`int`	`compareTo(GeoHash o)`
`boolean`	`contains(WGS84Point point)` find out if the given point lies within this hashes bounding box. Note: this operation checks the bounding boxes coordinates, i.e.
`boolean`	`enclosesCircleAroundPoint(WGS84Point point, double radius)`
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`
`static GeoHash`	`fromBinaryString(String binaryString)`
`static GeoHash`	`fromGeohashString(String geohash)` build a new `GeoHash` from a base32-encoded `String`. This will also set up the hashes bounding box and other values, so it can also be used with functions like within().
`static GeoHash`	`fromLongValue(long hashVal, int significantBits)`
`static GeoHash`	`fromOrd(long ord, int significantBits)`
`static String`	`geoHashStringWithCharacterPrecision(double latitude, double longitude, int numberOfCharacters)` This method uses the given number of characters as the desired precision value.
`GeoHash[]`	`getAdjacent()` returns the 8 adjacent hashes for this one.
`BoundingBox`	`getBoundingBox()`
`WGS84Point`	`getBoundingBoxCenter()` return the center of this `GeoHash`s bounding box.
`int`	`getCharacterPrecision()` Returns the number of characters that represent this hash.
`GeoHash`	`getEasternNeighbour()`
`GeoHash`	`getNorthernNeighbour()`
`protected int[]`	`getNumberOfLatLonBits()`
`WGS84Point`	`getOriginatingPoint()` returns the `WGS84Point` that was originally used to set up this. If it was built from a base32-`String`, this is the center point of the bounding box.

`protected long[]`	`getRightAlignedLongitudeBits()`
`GeoHash`	`getSouthernNeighbour()`

`protected GeoHash`	`recombineLatLonBitsToHash(long[] latBits, long[] lonBits)`
`int`	`significantBits()` how many significant bits are there in this `GeoHash`?
`static long`	`stepsBetween(GeoHash one, GeoHash two)` Counts the number of geohashes contained between the two (ie how many times next() is called to increment from one to two) This value depends on the number of significant bits.
`String`	`toBase32()` get the base32 string for this `GeoHash`. this method only makes sense, if this hash has a multiple of 5 significant bits.
`String`	`toBinaryString()`
`String`	`toString()`
`static GeoHash`	`withBitPrecision(double latitude, double longitude, int numberOfBits)` create a new `GeoHash` with the given number of bits accuracy.
`static GeoHash`	`withCharacterPrecision(double latitude, double longitude, int numberOfCharacters)` This method uses the given number of characters as the desired precision value.
`boolean`	`within(GeoHash boundingBox)` returns true iff this is within the given geohash bounding box.

  - withCharacterPrecision
```
public static GeoHash withCharacterPrecision(double latitude,
                                             double longitude,
                                             int numberOfCharacters)
```
    This method uses the given number of characters as the desired precision value. The hash can only be 64bits long, thus a maximum precision of 12 characters can be achieved.
  - withBitPrecision
```
public static GeoHash withBitPrecision(double latitude,
                                       double longitude,
                                       int numberOfBits)
```
    create a new GeoHash with the given number of bits accuracy. This at the same time defines this hash's bounding box.
  - fromBinaryString
```
public static GeoHash fromBinaryString(String binaryString)
```
  - fromGeohashString
```
public static GeoHash fromGeohashString(String geohash)
```
    build a new GeoHash from a base32-encoded String.
    This will also set up the hashes bounding box and other values, so it can also be used with functions like within().
  - fromLongValue
```
public static GeoHash fromLongValue(long hashVal,
                                    int significantBits)
```
  - geoHashStringWithCharacterPrecision

```
    This method uses the given number of characters as the desired precision value. The hash can only be 64bits long, thus a maximum precision of 12 characters can be achieved.
