I've been working on a captions layer for low zoom levels (z4 - z7).<br><br>The results are nice, but there seems to be a projection problem. Items are being displaced vertically.<br><br>Everything is spot-on for z8-z12, but when I try to repeat the process for z4-z7 then the error is apparent.
<br><br>I'm guessing at the moment that the problem has always been there, but is insignificant at z8, whereas at lower zoom levels it starts to become quite noticeable.<br><br>Is there anyone who is familiar with the mercator projection code in
tilesgen.pl / <a href="http://tahproject.pm">tahproject.pm</a> that might be able to shed some light on this problem?<br><br>The problem is easy to see here: <a href="http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=50.917162525157984&lon=0.5942957037543497&user=80n&zoom=7&layers=B000F000T">

<br><br>Does anyone have any ideas?<br><br>80n<br>
