For projection calculations it is several times faster than Proj.4 on the CPU, and could be even faster on a GPU for large batches but I haven't actually done much GPU performance testing. For datum shifts ProjCL is smarter than Proj.4 because it does some matrix math in advance, and generally faster because OpenCL can utilize all cores and the CPU's vector capabilities.earth wind map - a visualization of global weather conditions forecast by supercomputers updated every three hours.cambecc/earth Wind Map Interactive Stereographic - d3.js & topojson goodness.Geohash
