Simple java offline implementation of pluscodes
It converts a latitude and longitude into a PlusCode, in three formats: Full, Within and Shortened. The conversion is made offline, without any remote API call.
It does not shows a semantic form of address, with city name, country name, or other names, like streets, avenues, or even house numbers.

Before start, check the basic requirements: Java 8 or higher and Maven
$ git clone https://github.com/google/open-location-code
$ cd open-location-code/java/
$ cd ../../
$ git clone https://github.com/Scicrop/tests.pluscodes
$ cd tests.pluscodes
$ mvn packageIf you are using Eclipse IDE and have this problem: Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: com.diffplug.spotless:spotless-maven-plugin:1.23.0:check (execution: spotless, phase: compile) in the pom.xml from open-location-code package you can just comment the <execution> block inside pom.xml.
$ java -jar target/tests.pluscodes-0.0.1-jar-with-dependencies.jar -23.982528 -46.916556
Based on the above example, that uses this location: -23.982528 -46.916556. You can see in the following images, that both latitude/longitude and pluscode points to the same location.
