Spherical Mercator / New Portfolio

In the continuing adventures of my WFS example, I've now added spherical mercator capabilities to the PROJ.4 library, following those instructions Chris Schmidt gave me last week. On the fly reprojection of the data allows for the incorporation of numerous proprietary vendors, such as Google Maps and Microsoft Virtual Earth, as well as open source tile services such as OpenStreetMaps.org.

In other news, I'm also nearly finished moving my portfolio from WWU's servers to this site. One can click on the Portfolio link to the right, or simply navigate directly to a sub-section if they choose.
