in reply to Converting Pixels to LatLong

      Does anyone know of some Perl modules or even some reference pages to help me on my quest?

Google is your friend. I did a Google search and found this page which shows how to take two latitudes and longitudes and calculate distance.

Now the problem becomes one of calculating the distance represented by one pixel and applying some algebra to the formula pointed out above and you have your answer.

Hope this is a help...
