> For that matter, are different projections used at different zoom levels?  At the higher zoom levels, since you will likely be viewing only a small geographical area at a time, it would make sense to use a projection with a minimum of distortion, even for high latitudes, rather than a Mercator projection.


but you would use the elegance of the square and how to compute the tiles.
