使用geohash实现附近位置检索并且计算与当前位置的距离

public class geohash  {

    private static int numbits = 6 * 5;

    final static char[] digits = { '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h',

           'j', 'k', 'm', 'n', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z' };

    final static HashMap<Character, Integer> lookup = new HashMap<Character, Integer>();

    static {

       int i = 0;

       for (char c : digits)

           lookup.put(c, i++);

    }

    public double[] decode(String geohash) {

       StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder();

       for (char c : geohash.toCharArray()) {

           int i = lookup.get(c) + 32;

           buffer.append(Integer.toString(i, 2).substring(1));

       }

       BitSet lonset = new BitSet();

       BitSet latset = new BitSet();

       // even bits

       int j = 0;

       for (int i = 0; i < numbits * 2; i += 2) {

           boolean isSet = false;

           if (i < buffer.length())

              isSet = buffer.charAt(i) == '1';

           lonset.set(j++, isSet);

       }

       // odd bits

       j = 0;

       for (int i = 1;
