Hello,

I realize that this may be the wrong place to ask, but I am hoping that
someone can at least point me in the general direction that I need to
go.


I am designing an application that uses Google Maps. I am using GWT for
the app, and the GWT classes mostly make sense. The issue I am having
is that the data sets that I am trying to visualize are too big for
markers at further zooms, so I am trying to figure out how to generate
overlay tiles.


I have a data source (list of addresses) that are already geocoded. I
want to be able to generate sets of tiles, either server side or
offline. I have no problem writing my own tileserver, but what is being
elusive is me is how to figure out what pixel/tile coordinates a
certain lat/long point corresponds to. I realize that Maps uses a
Mercator projection, but I imagine that Google must have an "official"
algorithm for doing the conversion.


Any pointers would be much appreciated.


Thanks,
Bill
