We are currently rendering to canvas by simply subtracting a -80,43 from the lat/lon coords.
One of the major purposes of a GIS is to perform projections, where the earth's round-but-not-quite coordinates are flattened to cartesian (like a HTML5 canvas). GDAL can do this for us, we need to dig into the API and research how to use it properly.
