Standard - JavaScript Style Guide

A set of tools geospatial tools to help with TMS, Google (XYZ) Tiles.

This library is insipered by GDAL2Tiles, Google Summer of Code 2007 & 2008.

Another great simplistic tile library is tilebelt.

Install

npm

$ npm install --save global-mercator

web

<script src="https://wzrd.in/standalone/global-mercator@latest"></script>

Quickstart
