Are you familiar with the S2 library for mapping lat/lon into a 1d space? (http://blog.christianperone.com/2015/08/googles-s2-geometry-...) any idea what the tradeoffs would be between this and S2?

Hi, yes I am familiar with the s2 cell library. The whole intention was to bring in a similar feature for Geohash, which by default cover only rectangular regions. :)
