    Open question for all PRs regarding DGGS terminology: Do we prefer to use zone or cell? (Currently it's all "zone").

    @danlooo

    According to ISO 19170:2021:

    While the terms cell and zone are often used interchangeably, "zone" is the strictly preferred
    term. Cell is entirely appropriate when specifically discussing a zone's geometry or topology.

    Strictly speaking, a cell is just the boundary polygon geometry defining the zone region.

    Thanks, appreciated. Then our current usage of zone seems preferrable and we can keep it as is.
