Looking for module for EPSG coodinate conversionby japhy (Canon) |

japhy has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I'm big into plotting things that can be mapped using OpenLayers. However, I'm an absolute dunce when it comes to understanding the various projection schemas used. I don't know what EPSG4326 or EPSG900913 are. I just know that one has very funky numbers that don't look like lat/lng coords to me, and the other has normal-looking lat/lng coords.
In my JavaScript code, I just call the transform() method to do the conversion, but I don't know where to start to do that conversion in Perl. I don't know what module to look for. Any suggestions?
