WMS with Web mercator EPSG:3857 support doesn't work #109

Open elawrey opened 8 years ago

elawrey commented 8 years ago

The AtlasMapper only supports web mercator projection using the old EPSG:900913. This has been superseded by EPSG:3875.

Due to slow adoption by standards body EPSG, the Web Mercator is represented by a confusing series of standard names and ids, including OpenLayers:900913, EPSG:3785 and EPSG:3857.

The AtlasMapper should be able to work with all these aliases. The AtlasMapper should recognise these duplicate codes and make appropriate requests to each of the services.
