The most straight-forward approach, is to use the available tile system kml file and check which tile your given coordinate is within. If you have a polygon, I believe python's shapely package has an overlap feature.

You can find the tile system kml file here: https://hls.gsfc.nasa.gov/products-description/tiling-system/
