Alright I got something figured out. I found out how to calculate the tile at which a certain point it located based on the zoom level. I still don't understand how I can translate the tile/point position to workable coordinates.
I believe if I can get a particular tile's position relative to the window position, I can then get the difference and draw a marker based on that. Don't know if it's obvious, but I'm working in JavaScript and I would like to draw a div at each point. If I can get the relative position of a tile to the window, I can absolutely position a div relative to the tile's X/Y values in the window.
