NAME
       Geo::Functions - Package for standard Geo:: functions.

SYNOPSIS
	 use Geo::Functions qw{deg_rad deg_dms rad_deg}; #import into namespace
	 print "Degrees: ", deg_rad(3.14/4), "\n";

	 use Geo::Functions;
	 my $obj = Geo::Functions->new;
	 print "Degrees: ", $obj->deg_rad(3.14/2), "\n";

DESCRIPTION
CONVENTIONS
       Function naming convention is "format of the return" underscore "format
       of the parameters."  For example, you can read the deg_rad function as
       "degrees given radians" or "degrees from radians".

CONSTRUCTOR
   new
       The new() constructor

	 my $obj = Geo::Functions->new();

METHODS
   deg_dms
       Degrees given degrees minutes seconds.

	 my $deg=deg_dms(39, 29, 17.134);

	 my $deg=deg_dms(39, 29, 17.134, 'N');

   deg_rad
       Degrees given radians.

	 my $deg=deg_rad(3.14);

   rad_deg
       Radians given degrees.

	 my $rad=rad_deg(90);

       Radians given degrees minutes seconds.

	 my $rad=rad_dms(45 30 20.0);

   round
       Round to the nearest integer. This formula rounds toward +/- infinity.

	 my $int=round(42.2);

   dms_deg
       Degrees minutes seconds given degrees.

	 my ($d, $m, $s, $sign)=dms_deg($degrees, qw{N S});
	 my ($d, $m, $s, $sign)=dms_deg($degrees, qw{E W});

   dm_deg
       Degrees minutes given degrees.

	 my ($d, $m, $sign)=dm_deg($degrees, qw{N S});
	 my ($d, $m, $sign)=dm_deg($degrees, qw{E W});

   mps_knots
       meters per second given knots

	 my $mps=mps_knots(50.0);

   knots_mps
