Google maps is apparently UTM (which looks like a mess to transform) and
there's no info on what that wikipedia map's projection is, which is
wonderfully useless, otherwise it might be possible to stick it through
a transform as you say. I doubt there's any easy way to detect what
projection it is, though theoretically possible I suppose.

Hi,
I'm trying to fit the Wikipedia UK election map SVG over the top of
the Google Maps UK outline:
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=http:%2F%2Fwww.democracyclub.org.uk%2Fmedia%2Fall-uk.kml
It doesn't fit. I'm hoping this is some well-known issue around
different projections which I can solve with a transform of some kind.
I'm hoping the answer *isn't* "those maps are just differently
inaccurate".
Cheers
Seb
