[OHM] Building Infrastructure for OHM ­– RPA Historic Wetland Mapping

[SK53]

You need to look at what Donal Diamond (IrlJdel) does for the GSGS3906 maps
which are individually warped on map warper, but pulled together in a
single TMS layer.

Example individual map TMS:
http://mapwarper.net/maps/tile/11180/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png
Combined TMS: tms[18]:
http://mapwarper.net/layers/tile/101/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png

I don't know what magic is involved, but it works.
